| My whole life’s been a fight I never learned to win
|
| I never was the troublin' kind but trouble seemed to fit in
|
| In Honky Tonks, Smokey Bars and VFW’s
|
| Jammin' Haggard and Hank, Waylon and Jones, ain’t something most kids would do
|
| They tell me that I’m still young with a lot a life to go
|
| But this outlaw style grabbed ahold of me when I was just 14 years old
|
| So I stand up here on this stage, spotlight it keeps me blinded
|
| I tell 'em all that I’m okay but inside I know I’m lying
|
| So many lessons in life that you never wanna learn
|
| But my mind is set, I ain’t dead yet
|
| I got a lot more bridges to burn
|
| It’s got me drinking from the bottle, taught me how to sin
|
| They said keep falling down this path and your life is bound to end
|
| So I sit here and sing my songs, Jack flowing through my veins
|
| I’m smokin' from the left hand tryna make my Country name
|
| The city streets full a lot of sharks that’ll try to do you in
|
| They tell ya what you wanna hear right now but I’m sure it’ll change again
|
| So I stand up here on this stage, spotlight it keeps me blinded
|
| I tell 'em all that I’m okay but inside I know I’m lying
|
| So many lessons in life that you never wanna learn
|
| But my mind is set, I ain’t dead yet
|
| I got a lot more bridges to burn, yeah
|
| This guitar is the life of me and we’ve taken some wrong turns
|
| It’s just the price I pay for the lessons that I learned
|
| Granddaddy’s blood in me’s what makes me so damn stern
|
| I got a lot more bridges to burn |
