walkin down the street and a man bumps in to me it wasn't my fault but he still
gave me the third degree he was actin tough the man was talkin back but you
can't be wastin your time on people just like that
I say so hey hey hey everythings ok and eye for and eye I know isn't the only
way so go go go turn around and walk away you be the bigger man and thats the only way
at the bar drinkin we were livin with heart this man was there he was lookin for
a fight to start we coulda taught him a lesson if we wanted to but we came here
for a good time thats what we're gonna do
I say so hey hey hey everythings ok and eye for and eye I know isn't the only
way so go go go turn around and walk away you be the bigger man and thats the only way
So don't worry my children everything is all right
ain't no reason for violence aint no reason to fight
the only way i'd ever raise my fisted arm
is if someone were to hurt my friend or bring them harm oh i know its not right
it may be dumb but there's some things in this world you just can't walk away
from but i'll still try to send out this message to you cause it''d be a better place
if this message gets through
I say so hey hey hey everythings ok and eye for and eye I know isn't the only
way so go go go turn around and walk away you be the bigger man and thats the only way
I say so hey hey hey everythings ok and eye for and eye I know isn't the only
way so go go go turn around and walk away you be the bigger man and thats the only way
