Bail Me Out Please One More Time

Well I was just trying to reach the other side
Couldn't swim 
So I tried to fly
But I lost my wings
And if you don't mind
Could you bail me out please
One more time?
.
Ten years old at the swimming hole
That ol rope swing took a part of my soul
Grabbed that rope but I couldn't let go
I fell off and broke my toe
They laughed at me when I was ten years old
.
Well I was just trying to reach the other side
Couldn't swim 
So I tried to fly
But I lost my wings
And if you don't mind
Could you bail me out this
One more time?
.
17 in my daddy's truck
A settin there working my courage up
She was bout to say yes when the sheriff pulled up 
It happened to me man of all the luck
.
Well I was just trying to reach the other side
Couldn't swim 
So I tried to fly
But I lost my wings
And if you don't mind
Could you bail me out maybe
One more time?
.
At 24 I was outta my mind
All strung out
And running blind
No place to go and in a four way bind 
I'd gone too far and crossed the line
.
Well I was just trying to reach the other side
Couldn't swim 
So I tried to fly
But I lost my wings
And if you don't mind
Could you bail me out just 
One more time?
.
When He called to me
I just couldn't let go
I thought I'd gone too far
And lost my soul
But He held on tight
Love made me whole
He bailed me out even when I couldn't let go
.
Well I was just trying to reach the other side
Couldn't swim 
So I tried to fly
But I lost my wings
And if you don't mind
Could you bail me out Lord
One more time?
