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 to tattoo on my arm
Or 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
And when those thunder clouds are cryin' in the skies
And when those fireflies keep shining in your eyes
Keep your mind on the time
With your ass on the line,
Keep your fleet feet sliding side to side
Now the world can be an unfair place at times
But your lows will have their compliment 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
You must stick up for yourself son
Never mind what anybody else done
