Now kid, I know |
|
I haven't been a perfect man |
|
And I've avoided doing things |
|
I know I can |
|
But if I've learned one thing the tattoo on my arm |
|
Will burn into my thumb it would be that |
|
You must stick up for yourself, son |
|
Never mind what anybody else done |
|
Stick up for yourself, son |
|
Never mind what anybody else done |
|
Old man Schmelling was a formidable foe |
|
But Ambling |
|
Alp was too, at least that's what |
|
I'm toldBut if you learn one thing, you've learned it well |
|
In June you must give |
|
Fascists hell, they'll run but they can't hide |
|
You must stick up for yourself, son |
|
Never mind what anybody else done |
|
Stick up for yourself, son |
|
Never mind what anybody else done |
|
Stick up for yourself, son |
|
Never mind what anybody else done |
|
And when those thunder clouds are crying |
|
In the skies, in the skies |
|
And when those fireflies keep shining |
|
In your eyes, in your eyes |
|
Keep your mind for the time |
|
With your ass on the line |
|
Keep your feet, feet sliding |
|
To the side, to the side |
|
Now the world can be an unfair place at times |
|
But your lows will have their complement of highs |
|
And if anyone should cheat you, take advantage of or beat you |
|
Raise your head and wear your wounds with pride |
|
You must stick up for yourself, son |
|
Never mind what anybody else done |
|
Stick up for yourself, son |
|
Never mind what anybody else done |
|
Stick up for yourself, son |
|
Never mind what anybody else done |
|
Stick up for yourself, son |
|
Never mind what anybody else done |
