I grew in a small town Hold in the country I never had much And I was often hungry My dad he died young And i had to be strong But was a child and didn't get along
I tried to get, but I always fell down This twisted society has drive'd me around You made me the man that I am today But I never wanted to live my life this way
The bad reputation That never burnt out And teachers in school They had no doubt Saying that I am a looser And wouldn't get far So I dropped out of school just to play my guitar
I tried to get, but I always fell down This twisted society has drive'd me around You made me the man that I am today But I never wanted to live my life this way (x2)
