Lyrics

One Foot On Your Doorstep
Words & Music: Andy Hill
Last night I left The bed where we lay sleeping
Drifted through the walls out to the road
Now It don't take no college education
To know this dream is moving way too slow
Now for days we haven't spoke to one another
And we both know that something's wrong
There's a pain down deep inside me
Something that I used to have is gone

CHORUS
Now I've got one foot on your doorstep
One foot on the road
Every step I take I either make or break
The promise of the love you hold
Now I've got to make it to the river to wash my soul
In the water fresh and cold
And I've got one foot on your doorstep
One foot on the road

I don't pretend to make excuses for the way that l am
I don't pretend to,think that for yon I'm gonna change
I've known sin and I've known sorrow
And from where I stand
The straight and narrow path still looks the same

CHORUS
Now I've got one foot on your doorstep
One foot on the road
Every step I take I either make or break
The promise of the love you hold
Now I've got to make it to the river to wash my soul
In the water fresh and cold
And I've got one foot on your doorstep
One foot on the road

Man asks his God for forgiveness
Man makes excuse for his pride
But confession's no place for an honest man
To rationalize or to hide

CHORUS
