If your gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough

When you get knocked down you gotta get back up,

I ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer but I know enough, to know,

If your gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough

I lit my brain with Rot-Gut whiskey
                                  G
'Till all my pain was chicken fried
                            C       D
And I had dudes with badges frisk me
                            G
Teach me how to swallow pride

                      C          D
I took advice no fool would take
                               G
I got some habits I can't shake

Well I walk the walk and run my mouth
D                               G
Been on that short end for too long
                                        C
Well if they gave medals for honky-tonk wars
D                                  G
Hell I'd keep mine in my chest of drawers
                                         C
With my IRS bills and divorce papers and all that stuff
D                                         G
Hell If you're gonna be dumb you gotta be tough
