Take it on the chin

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
