Back Up Grinnin' Again - Kathy Mattea

There’s a little love left in my heart

And it’s lookin' for a place to go

It’s a strong love, it’s a sole survivor

Of the times I’ve been laid low

It’s been turned down, cheated upon

Made a fool of now and then

But every time a little more loves comes knockin'

It’s back up grinnin' again

Back up grinnin' again

Down for the count determined to win

I’ve seen enough heartache to break a man

But I’m back up grinnin' again

There’s a glimmer of hope in your eye

Shinin' through a rainy day

Had a good love go bad on you baby

And it turned your blue eyes gray

Between us both we’ve cried enough tears

To rain for days on end

But if we get together we could change the weather

And come up grinnin' again

Back up grinnin' again

Down for the count determined to win

I’ve seen enough heartache to break a man

But I’m back up grinnin' again

There’s a little love left in our hearts

And I bet a dollar tonight

A whole lotta happy’s gonna come our way

When we turn out the light

We’re a strong love, we’re soul survivors

And we get it right now and then

So let’s make a little more love to be sure

We get back up grinnin' again
