Stood Up
I stood up for the first time when I was just eleven months old And ever since that day mama said I never done what I was told I never stood for nothing too much all through my schooling years But I stood as much as I could stand I guess that's why I'm still standing here And then I stood up when love called my name baby I stood up even when that love was all in vain baby I got stood up once and left out in the pouring rain baby And then I stood up and I'll do it again Guess I never understood what she could do with all that flaming red hair I could not stand the heat in the kitchen so Jack I got on out of there I stood up to get a pack of cigarettes down at the corner store And now she's standing in some corner of my heart behind the kitchen Screen door And then I stood up when love called my name baby I stood up even when that love was all in vain baby I got stood up once and left out in the pouring rain baby And then I stood up and I'll do it again I don't know about you There's a lot of things I never stood up to Even when I turn and walk away Letras de cancionesI guess that's why I'm standing on my own two feet today They gave last call for alcohol and no one has to carry me home You see I only work here now man My drinking days are long gone I couldn't stand up after one no 'Till twenty had me down on the floor The first one doesn't get you Even though I'm still the last one out the door From Letras Mania
