Stand Up - The Revivalists

And I should’ve been murdered by now

And I’ve got fifteen people wondering

How the hell’d he make it out

I carry this bucket of pain

And I’ve got 18 dollars to my mother-fucking name

And it’s not a life it’s a game

And I’m a two-ton wrecking ball filled with pain

And I’ve got a lot to say

Oh and I’m still feeling good from yesterday

So stand up, if you’re out in the crowd

Get down, make the doctor proud

Stand up, if you’re out in the crowd

Get down, make the doctor proud

Well I don’t know everything

But I sure wish I did

Then every time I’d catch a case

I wouldn’t pop off so much at the lid

I’d have my get out of jail card

Popped cool and ready to go

And then I’d pay my tax and bail money

'Cause I’m a taxpaying fool

So we gotta

Stand up, if you’re out in the crowd

Get down, make the doctor proud

Stand up, if you’re out in the crowd

Get down, make the doctor proud

Stand up

Get down

Stand up

Get down

Take it away

He’s a little boy with a son and a daughter

He’s got no wife no he’s got no father

He’s just trying to make it through

This hard hard winter

Toes freezin' no reason he’s got no dinner

He’s a product of the music

A product of his time

A product of addiction in a very long line

Of users and abusers who just couldn’t

Keep it straight oh man I wish I didn’t know one

I hope it ain’t too late

So won’t you call your mama

Call your daddy you can call your sister too

'Cause we’ve been out here walking that hard line

You never ever could’ve made it through

And now we’re seven hundred billion strong

We still can’t tell right from wrong

So I’m gonna keep on dreaming until the cows come home

When drug store America starts taking care of their own

Start taking care of their own

Yeah yeah

So we gotta

Stand up, if you’re out in the crowd

Get down, make the doctor proud

Stand up, if you’re out in the crowd

Get down, make the doctor proud

Stand up

Get down

Stand up

Get down

Oh you gotta stand up

Oh yeah

Living for this feeling

We’ve got nowhere to go

Stand up

Oh yeah

I’m living for this feeling

I’ve got nowhere to go

Stand up

Oh yeah

Living for this feeling

We’ve got nowhere to go

Stand up
