Stand Your Ground

Alcohol barter skills

What I'm doing now to pay these bills

No potters field or shallow grave

It ain't money I'm tryin' to save

Well, never did I need another

I was never good with others

Always had to hold my cover

Ryman Gates still make me shudder

You can get right up or lay back down

That's the life in this southern town

I don't care what's fallin' round

Well, that's the life in this southern town

So boy stand your ground

I come from a stubborn blend

Like a thorn to tear the skin

That's aspartame and coffee grounds

Is what I'm doin' now to face these clowns

I've got a log, I've got some sod

I stick my feet there through the clod

To reach and grown out through these legs

Then touch the souls until and dead

But you can get right up or lay back down

That's the life in this southern town

And I don't care what's fallin' round

Well, that's the life in this southern town

So boy stand your ground

Livin' life on the edge of this town

And I fall and I kiss the ground

I ain't lost, yeah, I ain't found

'Cause you can get right up and lay back down

That's the life in this southern town

I don't care what's fallin' round

That's the life in this southern town

That's the life in this southern town

Boy, stand your ground
