Ray Waits Music - Second Wind

Times have sure been hard lately
I been running wide open
This storm I'm up against just ain't taking
No breaks or holding no punches
Well it's more than I can take
Just been bearing down on me like a tropical depression
I been knocked down but I'll get up again
Just wait til I get my second wind

When I get my second wind I'm gonna get back up and try again
Yeah the devil may think he has me on the ropes
He was just playing but I'm here to win
When the world is darkest you got to let the light back in
You can bet your boots I'm coming back again
When I get my second wind

I talked to my grand dad just the other day
He's doing alright and he's glad that I'm okay
He says its been real hot more than he can remember in years
But he and grandma will be alright when they get their second wind

When I get my second wind I'm gonna get back up and try again
Yeah the devil may think he has me on the ropes
He was just playing but I'm here to win
When the world is darkest you got to let the light back in
You can bet your boots I'm coming back again
When I get my second wind

In a wheel chair now he moves a little slow
But in Vietnam he was raring to go
His hair is gray you can see he's getting old
He makes wood burned American Flags and sells trinkets on the side of the road
He says he's been knocked down but one day he'll be up again
When he gets his second wind

When I get my second wind I'm gonna get back up and try again
Yeah the devil may think he has me on the ropes
He was just playing but I'm here to win
When the world is darkest you got to let the light back in
You can bet your boots I'm coming back again
When I get my second wind

Ol Saint Peter is gonna have to wait
When it comes my time to stand at the gate
Cause I might die but I'll be back again
when I get my second wind

When I get my second wind I'm gonna get back up and try again
Yeah the devil may think he has me on the ropes
He was just playing but I'm here to win
When the world is darkest you got to let the light back in
You can bet your boots I'm coming back again
When I get my second wind
