1
I stood up for the first time
2
When I was just eleven months old
3
And ever since that day, my mama said
4
I never done what I was told
5
I never stood for nothing too much
6
All through my schooling years
7
But I stood as much as I could stand
8
I guess that's why I'm still standing here
9
Yes, and
10
CHORUS:
11
I stood up
12
When love called my name, baby
13
I stood up
14
Even when that love was all in vain, baby
15

16
And left out in the pouring rain, baby
17
But I stood up
18
And I'd do it again

I guess she never understood what she could do
20
With all her flaming red hair
21
But I could not stand the heat in her kitchen
22
So, Jack, I got out of there

I stood up to get a pack of cigarettes

New she's standing in some corner of my heart
26
Behind the kitchen screen door

CHORUS
28
I don't know about you

But there's a lot of things I never stood up to
30
Even as I turned and walked away
31
I guess that's why I'm standing on my own
32
two feet today
33
Now they gave last call for alcohol
34
And no one has to carry me home
35
You see I only work here now man
36
My drinking days are long gone
37
I couldn't stand up after one, no
38
'Til twenty had me down on the floor
39
Now the first one doesn't get me
40
Even though I'm still the last one out the door
41
CHORUS
