about

I wrote this song back in 2009 after I watched the movie Crazy Heart. As I was walking back to the video store to return it. The rain was falling and I began singing the lyrics to the song acapella and than when I got home I wrote the music to it. It's about Love, Pain, Heartache, God, Life and the struggles we face. And the rest as they say is history.

lyrics

Doin The Right Thing By Matt Polsfut Oct 27/2018
Originally written and recorded in 2009. Studio version
now available on the album At My Best a collection of my best songs.

Verse 1

Well I've been walking outside in the rain
Never knew I could endure so much pain.

And though I'm sober I still feel plain
Never knew Life could be such a game.

Chorus

Well I've been crazy and I've been drunk.
I've been in trouble my ship should have sunk.

Verse 2

Well I've been in love that wasn't in vain
I've written good songs but I haven't seen fame.

Wasted most of my money on babes who could have been slaves.

Chorus 2

Well I've been a sinner and I've been a saint I've been a believer with lots of strength.

Well I've been a sinner and I've been a saint I've been a believer with lots of strength.

Verse 3

So Lord I need your grace put an end to all my wicked ways.

If there's only one thing that I need put an end to loneliness and bring me some peace.

Chorus 3

Well there's only one woman I see being my wife
Get rid of the darkness allow me to continue to grieve.

Verse 4

Well I've been wealthy and I've been broke
So many times I was made to be a joke.

Chorus 4.

Well I'm doing the right thing I'm moving on
I've began forgiving and I'm learning to be strong.

Well I'm doing the right thing I'm moving on
I've began forgiving and I'm learning to be strong.

Verse 5

So if ever you come across with this song remember your not always wrong.
