A Little Bit Stronger - Live from City Winery Nashville

Woke up late today and I

Still feel the sting of the pain, but I

Brushed my teeth anyway

I got dressed through the mess and put a smile on my face

I got a little bit stronger

Ridin' in the car to work and I'm

Tryin' to ignore the hurt, so I

Turned on the radio

That stupid song made me think of you

I listened to it for a minute

But then I changed it

I'm gettin' a little bit stronger

Just a little bit stronger

And I'm done hopin' that we could work it out

I'm done with how it feels, spinnin' my wheels

And lettin' you drag my heart around, and oh

I'm done thinkin' that you could ever change

I know my heart will never be the same

But I'm tellin' myself I'll be okay

Even on my weakest days, I get a little bit stronger

It doesn't happen overnight, but you

Turn around and a month's gone by and you

Realize you haven't cried

I'm not givin' you an hour or a second or another minute longer

I'm busy gettin' stronger

And I'm done hopin' that we could work it out

I'm done with how it feels, spinnin' my wheels

And lettin' you drag my heart around, and oh

I'm done thinkin' that you could ever change

I know my heart will never be the same

But I'm tellin' myself I'll be okay

Even on my weakest days, I get a little bit stronger

I get a little bit stronger, oh yeah

I'm gettin' along without you, baby

I'm better off without you, baby

How does it feel without me, baby?

I'm gettin' stronger without you, baby

And I'm done hopin' that we could work this out

I'm done with how it feels, spinnin' my wheels

And lettin' you drag my heart around, and oh

I'm done thinkin' that you could ever change

I know my heart will never be the same

But I'm tellin' myself I'll be okay

Even on my weakest days, I get a little bit stronger

I get a little bit stronger, yeah

I'm just a little bit stronger (hey, yeah, hey, yeah)

A little bit, a little bit, a little bit stronger (hey, yeah)

(Hey, yeah, hey, yeah, hey, yeah) oh, yeah

Ooh

Oh, I get a little bit stronger

Thank you so much

This is Mr. Ben Thomson over here on the ventilating guitar

And back here on the drums Mr. Jim Bloodgood

Jim started drumming for me right after Avery was born

So they've been here for the same amount of time (wait, wait)

Um, yeah, the kids, I mean I talk to them in-, during this project but the rest of the band I had to pay

It's kinda annoying

One thing I really enjoyed about it, it's not a normal show, it's not all the hits, um

We're just kinda doing songs that we loved and

And I like to go deep into people's albums and really learn about them

That way listening to the songs that they don't put on the radio

Um, and this is one of my favorite of my entire career that I've recorded, it's from the Restless album

And I hope you all love it

It's called Otis Redding
