[Verse 1] The bar's gettin' empty, the bottles are all gone The music's still playin', a lonely old song You looked at me with those beautiful eyes But with every word, I started to die [Chorus] But I can still get up, just barely, with a whole lot of might I can still get up, even in the middle of the night Even though you stoned me to my seat I'll find a way to get back on my feet [Verse 2] You told me I'm nothin', just a tired old man You said I'm a fool, with no kind of a plan You said I should go home, and leave it alone But a heart's not a rock, and a soul's not a stone [Chorus] But I can still get up, just barely, with a whole lot of might I can still get up, even in the middle of the night Even though you stoned me to my seat I'll find a way to get back on my feet [Bridge] Maybe I'm a fool, and maybe I'm blind To think that a girl like you could be so unkind But the world keeps on turnin', and the sun's gonna rise And I'll find a new home, under new and bluer skies [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] But I can still get up, just barely, with a whole lot of might Yeah, I can still get up, even in the middle of the night Even though you stoned me to my seat I'll find a way to get back on my feet [Outro] Yeah, get back on my feet From a beautiful, sad, and lonely defeat But I can still get up, I can still get up Yeah, I can still get up, and I'll find my way out ooooh yeah, I can still get up. Back on my feet. Back on my feet
