Trying to Reach My Goal - Alton Ellis

I don’t know where I’m going

But I sure know where I’ve been

And all the things I’m a-doing

I’d never do again

Got myself a woman

Just waiting to build a home

Just to have some children, yah

We can call our own

Oooh, help me!

I’m 'bout to lose my soul

Oooooh, woman!

Trying to reach my goal

Some day I’m gonna do things

To prove it to myself

That loving for my woman

Is all that I’ve got left

I knew it wasn’t easy

But things is much too rough

Said, things are so much harder

And things is rougher than tough

Oooh, help me!

I’m 'bout to lose my soul

Oooooh, woman!

Trying to reach my goal

Some day I’m gonna do things

To prove it to myself

That loving for my woman

Is all that I’ve got left

Oooh, help me!

I’m 'bout to lose my soul

Oooooh, woman!

Trying to reach my goal

Oooh, help me!

I’m 'bout to lose my soul

Oooooh, woman!

Trying to reach my goal

Oooh, help me!

I’m 'bout to lose my soul

Oooooh, woman!

Trying to reach my goal
