[Verse 1]
Up in the valley above
Deep where my freedom runs
When they lay me 6 feet deep
Ooh, what will they say of me?
Will they say that you ??
Drag my name down through the streets
Ooh lord, help me get better
When they lay me 6 feet deep
Ooh, what will they say of me?

[Chorus]
Got to get better
Sure can't get much worse
Got to get better
Sure can't get much worse

[Verse 2]
Down on my hands
Fall to my knees
Scabs, scars, elbows and teeth
From the soul of my feet
To the heart up on my sleeve
I just can't find no relief
From the pain you felt inside
And the same I tried to hide
Ooh lord, help me get better
When they lay me 6 feet deep
Ooh, what will they say of me?
[Chorus x2]
Got to get better
Sure can't get much worse
Got to get better
Sure can't get much worse
