John Hiatt - Stood Up lyrics
I stood up for the first time When I was just eleven months old And ever since that day, my 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 Yes, and CHORUS: 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 But I stood up And I'd do it again I guess she never understood what she could do With all her flaming red hair But I could not stand the heat in her kitchen So, Jack, I got out of there I stood up to get a pack of cigarettes Down at the corner store New she's standing in some corner of my heart Behind the kitchen screen door CHORUS I don't know about you But there's a lot of things I never stood up to Even as I turned and walked away I guess that's why I'm standing on my own two feet today Now 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 'Til twenty had me down on the floor Now the first one doesn't get me Even though I'm still the last one out the door CHORUS |
