Take It On The Chin
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I don't want you to know the pain I've known
A man should not have to walk his row alone
Of all the things in life, count on one
I'll always be behind you son
He said life is a gamble
And before you throw them dice
If it's more than you can handle
Please take this advice
He said stand your ground and don't back down, that's the only way to win
When life throws a punch son, you've got to take it on the chin
I don't want you see the things I saw
This old world can be so cruel after all
Of all the things in life cound on one
I'll always be behind you son
He said life is a battle and it ain't even fair
But if you stay up in your saddle
You're already halfway there
He said stand your ground and don't back down
That's the only way to win
When time throws you a punch son
You've got it take it on the chin
