Snail Is Gonna Get There Lyrics

I hit the beach to get my fortune read

They said I'd never be happy, that messed with my head

By 27 I thought I'd be dead

But I'm still here

Not much to show for all these years

I was killing time in California

I was drinking in the summer sun, ain't it fun

If you bet on me I need to warn ya

I will not win the race

But I know I'm gonna get there someday

Moving at a snail's pace but hey

Snail is gonna get there someday

Moving at a snail's pace but hey

Snail is gonna get there

Got psychoanalyzed and all that they said

Was that I'd never be happy

That didn't make me too happy

Thought I'd get better but I can't move ahead

Stuck in the mud

Hope I get out before the flood

I was killing time in California

I was drinking in the summer sun, ain't it fun

If you bet on me I need to warn ya

I will not win the race

But I know I'm gonna get there someday

Moving at a snail's pace but hey

Snail is gonna get there someday

Moving at a snail's pace but hey

Snail is gonna get there

Took time to get going

But I did not stop growing

Used to move when wind was blowing

But I have learned to brace

I know which way to face

And I know I'm gonna get there someday

Moving at a snail's pace but hey

Snail is gonna get there someday

Moving at a snail's pace but hey

Snail is gonna get there someday

Moving at a snail's pace but hey

Snail is gonna get there someday

I know I'm gonna get there someday

I know I'm gonna get there
