Carter, Deana - Do Or Die Lyrics






I’m sitting in the middle of the kitchen floor
Wondering how I’m gonna make it to the store
Trying to make it through another week I didn’t get paid
I feel a little hand rest on my sleeve
My little boy’s voice so soft and sweet
Says, “Momma, we got all we need…we’re gonna be ok”
How we learn to live without is when we learn to live…

[CHORUS:]
SO DO OR DIE, LAUGH OR CRY
THIS IS JUST A TEMPORARY STORM THAT’S BLOWING BY
SINK OR SWIM, LOSE OR WIN
IT TAKES THE EXTRAORDINARY TO CHANGE THE WORLD WE’RE IN
I CAN SIT AROUND AND THINK ABOUT ALL THE REASONS WHY
OR JUST DO OR DIE.

I heard about a Man from Galilee
Who laid down His life for you and me
And never said a word about the pain
Man, I wanna feel love like that
And the will to give away everything I have
And find some peace in my heart and not complain
When we learn to love like that is when we learn to live…

[CHORUS REPEAT]

[SOLO]

[CHORUS REPEAT]

WE CAN SIT IT OUT OR TURN AROUND AND GIVE IT ONE MORE TRY
‘CAUSE IT’S DO OR DIE.

I’m sitting in the middle of the kitchen floor
Wondering how I’m gonna make it to the store….
It’s do or die.

    I will also add that I like how you in particular show that for all the fame and fortune of your career over the years - that you stay rooted in the God, family, and friends are the most important always.....

    I downloaded the entire recording on iTunes Deana kudos it's really great!  Please tour Canada!  I'd love to see you at the Grey Eagle Casino In Calgary Alberta.  Dwight Yoakam played the grand opening their just recently and it was a great show and a great sounding room.  I think you'd be hit here!

    Deana, you are the best! Love the song / lyrics...love the video...love the photographs, especially the front cover of your new cd AND the one with Kris Kristofferson. It's all very meaningful. I'm speechless. Well, maybe not fully. lol

    I saw my cardiologist in November back in Omaha, I had to medically retire from working at the VA Hospital in Omaha this past June. I am only 47, I have a post-trauma brain injury wife, daughter, and son that has left them very disabled. I have been the bread-winner in my family for over 20 years. Working 2 full-time jobs during that time, because I have had the heart issues, beaten brain cancer 2 years ago, the radiation triggered diabetes, and I have battled MS for over 7 years. The cardiologist told me there is nothing more they can do for me regarding my heart. It totally took the wind and life out of me; but I had a choice to make. Be a victim or victor; I chose to become a victor. This song in so inspirational and Deana Carter has always been a favorite of mine for years, thank you for writing this song it seems like; just for me Deana. Sincerely and Respectfully, Sam McCubbin
