| I was ten years old the day I got caught
|
| With some dime store candy, that I never bought
|
| I hung my head and I faced the wall
|
| As daddy showed me wrong from right
|
| He said this hearts me more than it does you
|
| There’s some things son, that you just don’t do
|
| Is anythings I’m sayin getting through
|
| Is daddy I can see the light
|
| Oh lessons learned, man they sure run deep
|
| They don’t go away and they don’t come cheap
|
| Oh there’s no way around it
|
| 'Cause this world turns
|
| on lessons learned
|
| Granddaddy was a man I loved
|
| He bought me my first ball and glove
|
| Even taught me how to drive this truck
|
| Circling that ol' town square
|
| He spoke of life with a slow southern drawl
|
| I never heard him, 'cause I knew it all
|
| But I sure listened when I got the call
|
| That he was no longer there
|
| Oh lessons learned, man they sure run deep
|
| They don’t go away and they don’t come cheap
|
| Oh there’s no way around it
|
| 'Cause this world turns
|
| on lessons learned
|
| Oh lessons learned, man they sure run deep
|
| They don’t go away and they don’t come cheap
|
| Oh there’s no way around it
|
| 'Cause this world turns
|
