  • Beer don't keep
    Love's not cheap
    And trucks don't wreck themselves
    Mama ain't a shrink
    Daddy ain't a bank
    And God ain't a wishin' well
    Money ain't rich
    Everybody sins
    And nobody wins in a fight
    And sometimes wrong gets right

    Some of it you learn the hard way
    Some of it you read on a page
    Some of it comes from heartbreak
    Most of it comes with age
    And none of it ever comes easy
    A bunch of it you maybe can't use
    I know I don't probably know what I think I do
    But there's somethin' to
    Some of it

    Girls like to laugh
    Tears don't last
    And scared's what praying's for
    If it's close, swing the bat
    Everybody's gotta past
    And love's worth living for
    When you dance, hold her close
    'Til it breaks, go for broke
    Be the first to reach for her hand
    No you don't get to do some things again

    Some of it you learn the hard way
    Some of it you read on a page
    Some of it comes from heartbreak
    Most of it comes with age
    And none of it ever comes easy
    A bunch of it you maybe can't use
    I know I don't probably know what I think I do
    But there's somethin' to
    Some of it

    When you can't take it slow
    'Cause time sure won't
    What really makes you a man
    Is being true to her 'til your glass runs out of sand

    Some of it you learn the hard way
    Some of it you read on a page
    Some of it comes from heartbreak
    Most of it comes with age
    And none of it ever comes easy
    A bunch of it you maybe can't use
    I know I don't probably know what I think I do
    But there's somethin' to
    Some of it
