V1 (w/riff 1)
You know I got what it takes
But you tell me
why the hell am I still standing here
I’ve had my fair old share of bad luck baby
Now I’m a stronger man I ain’t got no fear

(w/ Riff 2 & 3)- same as 1st verse
I ain’t been thru the mill but I’ve been damn close
I could tell you stories
that you wouldn’t wanna know
& I wouldn’t change a single thing
I am what I am if you don’t like it I can show you the door
not for the faint hearted
you gotta know the deal
cause they’ll trip you up
if you ain’t got balls of steel

You know I got what it takes
But you tell me
why the hell am I still standing here
I’ve had my fair old share of bad luck baby
Now I’m a stronger man
I ain’t got no fear
No I ain’t
