Tough

Tough is hitting that gravel falling off your bike

Then you saddle back up for one more try, yeah

Tough is what they tell you to be when you scrape them knees

So you learn to be tough

Hold 'em back, never let 'em fall down

But, son, let me tell you now

God made tears to fall like rain

Heal your heart and ease your pain

Ain't no shame if you can't hold 'em all inside

You can bottle 'em up as best as you can

But don't think that's what makes a man

Being strong's sure got its place and time

But tough don't mean you can't cry

Tough Is playing guitar with your papaw

For the very last time that you never saw coming

Tough is waking up thinkin' that you get to do it again

But the news you get is tough

When Daddy does his best to say

What I can see running down his face

God made tears to fall like rain

Heal your heart and ease your pain

Ain't no shame if you can't hold 'em all inside

You can bottle 'em up as best as you can

But don't think that's what makes a man

Being strong's sure got its place and time

But tough don't mean you can't cry

Sometimes life's hard to accept

But even Jesus wept

God made tears to fall like rain

Heal your heart and ease your pain

Ain't no shame if you can't hold 'em all inside

You can bottle 'em up as best as you can

But don't think that's what makes a man

Being strong's sure got its place and time

Yeah, being strong's sure got its place and time

But tough don't mean you can't cry
