[Verse 1:]
You gotta be a little smarter
Try a little bit harder
You gotta do what you can
To get on down the line
You gotta dig a little deeper
And push a little bit further
You gotta do what you can
And not be left behind
You gotta do it for yourself
And I will too
You gotta put it all behind you
Leave nothing to remind you
You got to put it all away
To get out what’s inside
Be honest with yourself
And I will too
You gotta do it for yourself
And I will too
You gotta speak a little louder
You gotta be a little prouder
Cause you know that someday
Your bones will be in the ground

[Chorus:]
The grass is a whole lot greener
On the other side
I left a part of myself
When I left it all behind
Hungry gather ground
It's not what I've been reading
But what I've been needing
You and I we came to feel all right
Trying to get on down the line
[Verse 2:]
You gotta do it for yourself
And I will too
Be honest with yourself
And I will too
You gotta take a little love
And I will too
You gotta take a little love
If I will too

[Chorus:]
The grass is a whole lot greener
On the other side
I left a part of myself
When I left it all behind
Hungry gather ground

[Outro:]
It's not what I've been reading
But what I've been needing
Feeling it out came to feel alright
Trying to get on down the line
You gotta do it for yourself
And I will too
