- Songwriters: Harley Lee Allen, Gary W Cotton
I tried to stay on the straight and narrow
But I've walked a crooked path
And I've felt worthy of forgiveness
And deservin' Heaven's wrath
Right on the money and off by a mile
Ahead of my time and way out of style
But I'm hangin' tough, I ain't had enough
I ain't givin' up on life or love
Well, I try to stay away from the bottle
But I've reached out for the glass
I've try to pull back on the throttle
But I still run out of gas
I've been an angel, but never a saint
Hung with the devil, don't nobody faint
'Cause I'm hangin' tough, I ain't had enough
I ain't givin' up on life or love
Yesterday's history, today is a chance
Tomorrow is a mystery so I'm makin' plans
To keep hangin' tough, I ain't had enough
I ain't givin' up on life or love
I keep hangin' tough, I ain't had enough
I ain't givin' up on life or love
Life or love
