Fixin It Up by Kelsey Waldon Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When I left Kentucky
There was one thing on my mind
And I knew what you wanted from me
But I never had the time
There was a preacher on the radio
And I wondered if he was right
Will I ever make it to heaven when I die?
Will I ever make it to heaven when I die?
[Verse 2]
And there's one thing I remember
When lifе get's so unkind
Is that a rich boy goes to collegе
And a poor man holds the line
And now they're takin' what they want from me
But I'm seein' the divide
And I keep on singin' a song that never pays me a dime
And I keep on singin' a song that never pays me a dime
[Chorus]
But I'm fixin' it up, Mama, and I'm doin' it right
I'm gonna have everything worked out in my due time
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
I'm fixin' it up, Mama, and I'm doin' it right
I'm gonna have everything worked out in my due time
[Verse 3]
You used to tell me that a lady never lies
She lays down straight in the bed she's made
And she never will ask why
She stands on a mountain and she makes the sacrifice
But there's a doubt in my heart and a gleam in my eye
[Chorus]
But I'm fixin' it up, Mama, and I'm doin' it right
I'm gonna have everything worked out in my due time
[Outro]
There's a doubt in my heart and a gleam in my eye
But I'm fixin' it up, Mama, and I'm doin' it right
When I left Kentucky
There was one thing on my mind
And I knew what you wanted from me
But I never had the time
There was a preacher on the radio
And I wondered if he was right
Will I ever make it to heaven when I die?
Will I ever make it to heaven when I die?
[Verse 2]
And there's one thing I remember
When lifе get's so unkind
Is that a rich boy goes to collegе
And a poor man holds the line
And now they're takin' what they want from me
But I'm seein' the divide
And I keep on singin' a song that never pays me a dime
And I keep on singin' a song that never pays me a dime
[Chorus]
But I'm fixin' it up, Mama, and I'm doin' it right
I'm gonna have everything worked out in my due time
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
I'm fixin' it up, Mama, and I'm doin' it right
I'm gonna have everything worked out in my due time
[Verse 3]
You used to tell me that a lady never lies

And she never will ask why
She stands on a mountain and she makes the sacrifice

There's a doubt in my heart and a gleam in my eye
But I'm fixin' it up, Mama, and I'm doin' it right
