The Hard Way

Whoa yea ah whoa

Seems like everybody's tried to tell me

What to do and what to be

Go there, wear that, do this, do that

They always tell me it's for my own good

I wanna scream

oh I wish they would

Let me learn the hard way

(Call me foolish, call me lazy, call me young, call me crazy)

Let me do it my way, its alright my way

let me learn the hard way

Take my heart out, pick back up and I'll decide when I'm in love

Cuz the hard way is alright

It's alright with me

Whoa yeah oh whoa

So what if I get my fingers burned

Life's a lesson I've got to learn

I won't forget

No time, no regret

Oh, I know its all been done before

I'll make my goals and I'm keeping score

Let me learn the hard way

(Call me foolish, call me lazy, call me young, call me crazy)

Let me do it my way, its alright my way

let me learn the hard way

Take my heart out, pick back up and I'll decide when I'm in love

Cuz the hard way is alright

It's alright with me

It's alright with me

They say it's just a phase I'm going through

But it's something that I've got to do

Got to do

Let me learn the hard way

(Call me foolish, call me lazy, call me young, call me crazy)

Let me do it my way, its alright my way

let me learn the hard way

Take my heart out, pick back up and I'll decide when I'm in love

Cuz the hard way is alright

It's alright with me....
