The Low Road
When I was in school
Some bullies was picking on me
Pushed me down at the playground
And I skinned my knee
Lord I wanted to cry
It occured to me
Took my skeletor lunchbox
Took out his front teeth
My daddy always told me
Do the best that you can
To be a kind hearted
Sensitive hard working man
But if the high road is closed
And the lightnings comming down
Sometimes you gotta man up
And take the low road around
Sometimes you gotta toughen up
And take the low road around
Needless to say
My bully problems did cease
But I found myself in love
With a two-timing cheat
When she left i wanted to die
Lord I didn't even eat
Then in walks her little sister
Lookin all kinds of sweet
My momma always said
Son you gotta try hard
To find a woman that will love you
For the man that you are
But if the high road is closed
And the lightnings comming down
Sometimes you gotta man up
And take the low road around
Sometimes you gotta think quick
And take the low road around
When I took my song to nashville
Lord it didn't take me long
To realize they ain't helpin you
If you dont play along
I may not look and sound like money
But my heart is in my song
Gonna keep doin it my way
Weather I'm right or wrong
My daddy always said dont ever try to be
Just another one of them boys
Cause you aint never gonna be
But if the high road is closed
And the landslides comming down
Sometimes you gotta man up
And take the low road around
Sometimes you gotta toughen up
And take the low road around
Strap some chains on them tires
And take the low road around
