Testo Stood Up - John Hiatt
Testo della canzone Stood Up (John Hiatt), tratta dall'album Bring The Family
I stood up for the first time when I was just eleven months old
And ever since that day my mama said I never done what I was told
I never stood for nothing too much all through my schooling years
And I stood as much as I could stand
I guess that's why I'm still standing here
Yes and I stood up when love called my name, babe
I stood up even when that love was all in vain, babe
I got stood up once and left out in the pouring rain, babe
But I stood up and I'd do it again
Let me tell you
I guess she never understood what she
Could do with all her flaming red hair
But I could not stand the heat in her
Kitchen, so Jack I got on out of there
I stood up to get a pack of cigarettes down at the corner store
Now she's standing in some corner of my
Heart behind the kitchen screen door
Let me tell you
I stood up when love called my name, babe
I stood up even when that love was all in vain, babe
I got stood up once and left out in the pouring rain, babe
But I stood up and I'd do it again
I don't know about you
There's a lot of things I never stood up to
Even though I was trying to walk away
I guess that's why I'm standing on my own two feet today
Now they gave last call for alcohol and no one has to carry me home
You see I only work here now man, my drinking days are long gone
I couldn't stand up after one, no
'Til twenty had me down on the floor
Now the first one doesn't get me even
Though I'm still the last one out the door
But let me tell you
I stood up when love called my name, babe
I stood up even when that love was all in vain, babe
I got stood up once, I said I got stood up
Once and left out in the pouring rain, babe
I stood up when love called, called
My name, name, name, name, name, name
And I stood up even when that love was all
In vain, all in vain, all in vain, baby
I got stood up once, stood up once and left
Out in the pouring rain, rain, rain, rain, rain
Oh but I stood up and I'd do it, I'd do it again
I'd do it again
