I Hope I'm Doing This Right Lyrics

Sometimes I wonder
How I made it this far
I've won some trophies
And I wear some ugly scars
Before I go to bed
I kneel and pray every night
I wonder if God's proud of me
I hope I'm doing this right

I know a lots of people
They appear to have it made
I battle with jealousy
Why can't I live that way?
Maybe they're just better than me
At playing the game of life
Maybe I need to change some things
I hope I'm doing this right

The more I learn the less I know
The more I change the more I grow
I pray the road I'm traveling on
Will lead me to the light
God I hope I'm doing this right

Most of my friends are from the wrong side of the track
Here's why I do not have a problem with that
Hank Williams was in the darkness
When he sang I saw the light
I believe there's good in everyone
I hope I'm doing this right

The more I learn the less I know
The more I change the more I grow
I pray the road I'm traveling on
Will lead me to the light
God I hope I'm doing this right
Oh I hope I'm doing this right

I Have a Good Day

I Don't Wanna Know

If You Can't Love Me Forever

If I Can Get Over Her

That's Life

Sometimes I wonder 
How I made it this far 
I've won some trophies 
And I wear some ugly scars 
Before I go to bed 
I kneel and pray every night 
I wonder if God's proud of me 
I hope I'm doing this right 
 
I know a lots of people 
They appear to have it made 
I battle with jealousy 
Why can't I live that way? 
Maybe they're just better than me 
At playing the game of life 
Maybe I need to change some things 
I hope I'm doing this right 
 
The more I learn the less I know 
The more I change the more I grow 
I pray the road I'm traveling on 
Will lead me to the light 
God I hope I'm doing this right 
 
Most of my friends are from the wrong side of the track 
Here's why I do not have a problem with that 
Hank Williams was in the darkness 
When he sang I saw the light 
I believe there's good in everyone 
I hope I'm doing this right 
 
The more I learn the less I know 
The more I change the more I grow 
I pray the road I'm traveling on 
Will lead me to the light 
God I hope I'm doing this right 
Oh I hope I'm doing this right

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
