Letter
Lyrics by David Cameron Anderson, Davecamson Music ASCAP
Music by David Cameron Anderson & Lem Jay Ignacio

I make my money in a fast food store
I know we wanted for me so much more
It pays the rent I sometimes like it too
I can do what I can do

I heard your message on my answer phone
I'll have to call you when my mind's alone
It could be later than a day or two
I can do.I can do what I can do

I won't apologize for who I love
He's a gift to me from God above
I'm sad my loving disagrees with you
But I can do what I can do

I'm scared then sorry when I raise my voice
I state my sense of true then I see no choice
I know it's little more than point of view
But I can do what I can do

With no excuses and no place among the saints
Just growing older than my mirror paints

Too young to notice when your brother died
He left you lonely by the way you cried
We know how hard it's been to fill his shoe
I can do what I can do

And as I watch you go in slow degrees
From disappointments that no other sees
Oh, have another drink. I'll have one too
I can do what I can do

And though it's not been easy loving you
I can do.
