Hey little mama, time ain’t running out
They don’t know what they’re talking about
You can be the one to draw the line in the sand
But it won’t be for money
And it won’t be for fame
Hey little mama, if it’s all the same
Then let them make their bets on a losing game
Smile and run around in the light of the day
And watch em sing along as you start to play
Your song is coming along
Voice getting strong
Callused fingers and thumbs
And a sunburned neck
Scars that once hurt you but are now good friends
You know wrong from right
That’s what keeps my baby up so late each night
Life ain’t kind to the ones who fight
But I ain’t kind to those who just stand by
Stand by
The day that you were born you came out screaming
Hands in little fights, just swinging
I never thought that you would need protection
Guess I know more than I did back then
Used to think that strength was about keeping cool
Never getting too emotional
Now I know that strength’s about a heart so full
Feel the pull, despite it all
Your song is coming along
Voice getting strong
Callused fingers and thumbs
And a sunburned neck
Scars that once hurt you but are now book ends
You know wrong from right
That’s what keeps my baby up so late each night
Life ain’t kind to the ones who fight
But I ain’t kind to those who just stand by
Stand by
Hurts a lot more to see a good friend just stand by
Than it does getting punched by the bad guy
I hurt myself when for 6 years I didn’t cry
Tryin’ to play the tough guy
You get worked up over things I never considered
That’s when I realized you were The Fighter
That’s when I realized you were a heavyweight champion
That’s when I realized…
Your song is coming along
Voice getting strong
Callused fingers and thumbs
And a sunburned neck
Scars that once hurt you but are now book ends
You know wrong from right
That’s what keeps my baby up so late each night
Life ain’t kind to the ones who fight
But I ain’t kind to those who just stand by
Stand by
