I got a pain in my soul today It's hard for me to even try and talk about it Old things are goin' away But what you can't let go Will keep you hangin' around I feel like I could die And do a little bit better It goes away in time So they say, whatever You can't put it all back in the bottle So you better let go That old rooster's crowin' His head's held high He's walkin' through the garden Lookin' for food with his two wives Well I wanted it all for myself I didn't wanna let go of no one But you gotta let a bird fly When she's feelin' hemmed in I feel like I could die And do a little bit better It goes away in time So they say, whatever You can't put it all back in the bottle So you better let go I feel like I could die And do a little bit better It goes away in time So they say, whatever You can't put it all back in the bottle So you better let go You can't put it all back in the bottle So you better let go
