At Least Once

I don't know how I got here

I don't know if I'll stay

Sometimes no one knows the difference between a sinner and a saint

If you want to know for certain which you are and which you ain't

You've got to be one at least once

They say living life is easy in this safe and precious land

They say no one ever got somewhere by sleeping in the sand

You just start by building something

Work harder than you can

You've got to do this at least once

You just try

Do it right

You just try to find

Where better times are hard to find

I wake up some mornings with a demon in my head

I say: man, please go away now, you're the worst I've ever had

He says: why don't you accept me, for a minute, for a day?

You've got to do this at least once

He starts giving me advice now about doing what feels right

About thinking what I've got here, about leaving it behind

About the hours that I spend here, is it really what I want?

He had to do this at least once

I say: man, you must be kidding me, after all the work I've done

He says: maybe that's the problem, you're not having any fun

Go and get your stuff together, go to California

You've got to go there at least once

You've got to do this at least once

We'll just try

You and I

We'll just drive around

Where better times are hard to find

Where better times are hard to find

Where better times are hard to find

Where better times are hard to find
