Okay With That by Shout

"Okay With That" is truly an international, trans-Atlantic colaboration.  I was approached by friend and renowned Hungarian guitarist, Miki Birta to help write some material for a song idea he had.  Within 2 weeks I penned these lyrics and through file exchange we pieced together this simple recording and video.  "Okay With That" is a reflection on coming to a point of acceptance of things as they have to be.  It was a great exercise in cooperation.  Thanks Miki!  We hope you like it. :)

I do what I can
I'm still just one man
I can't walk through these walls
Or see through it all
Okay
I'm okay with that

I got what I got
Enough, not a lot
Enough to give away
Can't keep it anyway
Okay
I'm okay with that

(chorus)

It ain't no crime to be lonely here
And to pay out your wages in tears
Pack light
Hang on loosely
Keep a prayer on your tongue
And be okay with that


Some things can't be ours
Some hearts, some nice cars
Leave this bag of bones
I only got it on loan
Okay
I'm okay with that.
