Against The Grain

Don't let no one tell you

How to speak or how to look (la la la la la la)

Wear your hair like you wanna

Don't get hung up on the rules (la la la la la la)

I chased a dream of a simple life

But it only served to cause me strife

'Cause I was made to go against the grain (aah aah)

So don't tell me to fall in line again, and (aah aah)

The common life was never made for me (aah aah)

The song I sing will carry me away-ay (aah aah)

Now if we meet on Main Street

Play it cool and tip your hat (la la la la la la)

You and I've got a secret

'Cause we don't follow the path (la la la la la la)

And I'm not just made for the simple life

I would rather be on the stage tonight

'Cause I was made to go against the grain (aah aah)

So don't tell me to fall in line again, and (aah aah)

The common life was never made for me (aah aah)

The song I sing will carry me away-ay (aah aah)

Can't you see that I'm sparkling now?

Ooh bring the lights up and hear the crowd

'Cause I was made to go against the grain (aah aah)

So don't tell me to fall in line again, and (aah aah)

The common life was never made for me (aah aah)

The song I sing will carry me away-ay (aah aah)

'Cause I was made to go against the grain (aah aah)

So don't tell me to fall in line again (aah aah)
