"gettin' By Lyrics - Kris Kristofferson

New York City was a stitch in time 

When I stood all I could of L.A. 

Patchin' up the pieces of my tangled mind 

Diggin' somethin' different every day, yeah 

Soon as I was better, I was movin' on 

Gettin' it together, gettin' good and gone 

And by gettin' by high, good and high and strange 

Gonna get some strange 

New ain't nothin' but a state of mind 

Keeps a man from missin' what he left behind 

I'll take anything that I can find 

Anyhow anywhere anyway anytime 

I'll keep livin' till the day I die as long as I can 

Get it up for one more try 

Gettin' by gettin' by high good and high and strange 

Gonna get some strange
