Lyrics
0:01I was a tuff kid
0:02Yeah I was a tuff kid
0:04It took a lot to get me on my knees
0:09I had a hard time
0:11Yeah I had a hard time
0:13Just ask somebody if you don't believe me
0:25My mama had me
0:27But she didn't get me
0:29I guess I broke her at the age of 5
0:33My daddy hit me
0:35But he couldn't quit me
0:37We showed each other how to feel alive
0:41Say hey everybody at the old school yard
0:46Took it all the way and we took it hard
0:50Did a lot of things make you feel alright
0:54Said the kind of things keep you up at night
1:06It was a small town
1:08And it didn't fit me
1:10There wasn't anything that I could do
1:13So I found a guitar
1:16And I took it with me
1:18Just like every single kid I knew
1:22We say hey everybody at the old schoolyard
1:27Took it all the way and we took it hard
1:31Did the kind of things make you feel alright
1:35Said the kind of things keep you up at night
I was a tuff kid Yeah I was a tuff kid It took a lot to get me on my knees I had a hard time Yeah I had a hard time Just ask somebody if you don't believe me My mama had me But she didn't get me I guess I broke her at the age of 5 My daddy hit me But he couldn't quit me We showed each other how to feel alive Say hey everybody at the old school yard Took it all the way and we took it hard Did a lot of things make you feel alright Said the kind of things keep you up at night It was a small town And it didn't fit me There wasn't anything that I could do So I found a guitar And I took it with me Just like every single kid I knew We say hey everybody at the old schoolyard Took it all the way and we took it hard Did the kind of things make you feel alright Said the kind of things keep you up at night
