God Knows I've Tried

[00:15.20] "She's a little rebel," that's what they say
[00:19.26] Yeah, I've been chasing trouble since back in the day
[00:23.69] I don't wanna grow up, I'm just not built that way
[00:30.07] Daddy wishes I was the girl next door
[00:34.10] Mama tells me I should smile some more
[00:37.94] Baby, I've been bad
[00:40.90] But God knows I've tried to be good
[00:48.71] God knows I've tried
[00:56.39] To the lovers and friends that I've gone and left behind
[00:59.91] I might've run away, but, see, I ain't driving blind
[01:04.72] I made it to the circus, but I still walk the line
[01:10.71] So go on, judge me by my cover
[01:14.83] I know I'll never write another
[01:19.15] Baby, I've been bad
[01:21.80] But God knows I've tried to be good
[01:29.82] God knows I've tried
[01:36.82] I've been smokin', drinkin', lyin', cheatin'
[01:40.95] I've overpromised, but underachieved
[01:44.22] And I usually ain't afraid of nothing
[01:48.46] But saying this out loud terrifies me
[01:51.50] I've been breakin' hearts, stealin' cars
[01:55.89] Takin' shit to walk on Mars
[01:59.25] To never say sorry don't mean I'm not sorry
[02:03.08] Baby, I'm sorry, oh, baby, I'm sorry
[02:07.49] I'm sorry for the pain I've caused
[02:10.75] For all the moments I've gone and lost
[02:14.24] Don't you know I've tried to be good?
[02:22.05]
[02:36.14] "She's a little rebel," that's what they say
[02:40.14] Yeah, I'll be chasing trouble for the rest of my days
[02:44.14] No, I'm never growing up no matter what they say
[02:51.18] So let me speak some truth to you
[02:54.94] I'll do it all again times two, yeah
[02:59.81] Baby, I'm bad
[03:02.37] But God knows I've tried to be good, yeah, ooh
[03:10.03] God knows I've tried
[03:14.23] And I've tried and tried
[03:17.25] God knows I've tried
[03:25.76]
