When the world goes left, I go right Just to go against the grain I crash and burn most of the time And I know how blood tastes A no trespass sign ends in blue lights Little white lies lose trust Nothing hurts like a goodbye And that's how grew up I grew up in the back seat on a back road With the one that got away Grew up in a back pew of an old church Where I learned amazing grace Make no mistake, I wouldn't change who am or who I was Most things I learned the hard way But that's how I grew up Well, you can win the fight and lose the war What you say you can't take back When you can't be the man she needs you to be It'll make you grow up fast I grew up in the back seat on a back road With the one that got away Grew up in a back pew of an old church Where I learned amazing grace Make no mistake, I wouldn't change who I am or who | was Most things I learned the hard way But that's how grew up Yeah, that's how grew up The first time I saw daddy cry Was when his went to meet the sun We said goodbye for the last time That's how I grew up I grew up in the back seat on a back road With the one that got away Grew up in a back pew of an old church Where I learned amazing grace Make no mistake I wouldn't change who I am or who I was Most things learned the hard way But that's how grew up Most things I learned the hard way But that's how I grew up When the world goes left, I go right Just to go against the grain
