Em
[Verse]
Em
Scars and tattoos, got 'em head to toe
Em
I was born to raise hell, 'til it's time to go
Em
Never feared another man, never ran from a problem
Em
Then my daddy wasn't there, momma didn't raise a coward
[Verse]
Em
Weathered every storm, rain, sleet, hail, snow, hell no
Em
No retreat, I don't eat, this is what I stand for
Em
Stand up, man up, we can throw them hands
Em Am
Even prison couldn't change me, I ain't scared to go back
Em
That's a known fact, wanna scrap, face me if you do
Em Am
Think you put me in my grave, well you a daisy if you do
Em
And if you do, bad motherfucker, put that on my tombstone
Em Am
But that'll be a cold day in hell, boy I'm too strong
Em
Boots on, wanna see the bottom of 'em, say something
Em Am
Paid for us sinners, Lord knows everyday it's somethin'
Em
Trials but I persevere, through hard work and drinkin' beer
Em Am
So I ain't trying to hear that bullshit, bitch I'm workin' here
[Chorus 2x]
Em
It's been a long day and I ain't done yet
Em
And all I know is come and get you some
Em
I learned the hard way, I did it my way
Em
But like they say, boy life goes on
[Verse]
Em
On and on and on I'm gettin' up another mornin'
Em Em7
Another day, another dollar, work my hands off to the bone
Em7 Em
Bartender pour another round, I'm just trying to ease the pain
Am
Boy I'm headed back home
Em
Still got dirt all in my hands, workin' hard trying to make it
Em
What don't kill you make you stronger, If it don't then it'll break ya
Em
Take you out like trash, just that fast, life can put you on your ass
Em Am
I'm cut from a different cloth, but you wouldn't know about that
[Bridge]
Em
Lord, they don't know shit about a hard life
Em Am
Lord, they don't know shit about no hard times
Em
Lord, learn the hard way now I'm right or wrong
Em
Boy, I guess it's like they
N.C.
Say, boy life goes on
[Chorus 2x]
[Outro]
Em Em7 Em
