Stood Up 歌词

I stood up for the first time When I was just eleven months old And ever since that day, my mama said I never done what I was told I never stood for nothing too much All through my schooling years But I stood as much as I could stand I guess that's why I'm still standing here Yes, and [Chorus:] I stood up When love called my name, baby I stood up Even when that love was all in vain, baby I got stood up once And left out in the pouring rain, baby But I stood up And I'd do it again I guess she never understood what she could do With all her flaming red hair But I could not stand the heat in her kitchen So, Jack, I got out of there I stood up to get a pack of cigarettes Down at the corner store New she's standing in some corner of my heart Behind the kitchen screen door [Chorus] I don't know about you But there's a lot of things I never stood up to Even as I turned and walked away I guess that's why I'm standing on my own Two feet today Now they gave last call for alcohol And no one has to carry me home You see I only work here now man My drinking days are long gone I couldn't stand up after one, no 'Til twenty had me down on the floor Now the first one doesn't get me Even though I'm still the last one out the door [Chorus]
