Intro: Verse: Oh, when I was at school some boys was picking on me Pushed me down at the playground and I skinned my knee Lord, I wanted to cry, it occured to me Took my skeletor lunchbox, took out his front teeth My daddy always told me do the best that you can To be a kind hearted sensitive hard working man But if the high road is closed and the lightnings comming down Sometimes you gotta man up and take the low road around Sometimes you gotta toughen up and take the low road around Verse: Now, needless to say my bully problems did cease But I found myself in love with a two-timing cheat When she left I wanted to die Lord I didn't even eat And in walks her little sister lookin all kinds of sweet But my momma always said son you gotta try hard To find a woman that will love you for the man that you are But if the high road is closed and the lightnings comming down Sometimes you gotta man up and take the low road around Sometimes you gotta think quick and take the low road around Yeah, Instrumental:
