Doin' What's Right
|
(Darryl Worley/Dan Demay)
|
|
The only thing that he feared was God
|
He was tough as nails, he didn't spare the rod
|
'Cause he loved us kids
|
Yeah, he did
|
|
Raised us up straight and strong
|
Said be your own man, don't you tag along
|
With the wrong crowd
|
He said, listen now
|
|
Don't you let nobody tell you what you need to do
|
Just listen to that voice that's talkin' deep inside of you, sayin'
|
|
Don't sell out
|
Don't you compromise
|
If it's something you believe in
|
Son, you may have to fight
|
But you can't go wrong when you're doin' what's right
|
|
Well, things have changed in the world today
|
No black and white, just shades of grey
|
And we know it ain't right
|
Taking pills to sleep at night
|
|
My old man still lives in me
|
And I'm seeing things that he said I'd see
|
But I won't give in
|
'Cause I remember when
|
|
He told me not to live my life for anybody else
|
Son, the only thing you have to do is answer to yourself, sayin'
|
|
Don't sell out
|
Don't you compromise
|
If it's something you believe in
|
Son, you may have to fight
|
But you can't go wrong when you're doin' what's right
|
|
He said, it may be the hardest thing you'll ever have to do
|
And if anybody's got your back it'll be a precious few, sayin'
|
|
Don't sell out
|
Don't you compromise
|
If it's something you believe in
|
Son, you may have to fight
|
But you can't go wrong when you're doin' what's right
