The Hard Way
.

Only fools would race down Grist Mill Road

Let alone in angry weather

That what I tell everyone I know

Now that I know better

That's a lesson I wish I woulda learned
Without havin' to watch my Mustang burn

Before my best buddy had to wind up hurt
An' his whole life changed

That's a lesson I wish I didn't learn the hard way
.
Only a fool would keep a diamond ring

In a box on the top of his closet

He came so close; he almost asked

It was right there in his pocket

That's a lesson I wish I woulda learned
Before standin' in the back row of that church

Watchin' her daddy givin' her

To the man who took my place

That's a lesson I wish I didn't learn the hard way
.

Regret's been know to give a man a beatin'

But I ain't in the mood for fightin' back this evenin'
.

Only fools don't take the time of day

They stay too busy runnin'

An' to stop just once to tell their Dad

Just how much they love him

That's a lesson I wish I woulda learned

Before that phone call came an' it was her
No, Momma never had to say a word

I knew it was too late

That's a lesson I wish I didn't learn the hard way

.
The hard way

The hard way

The hard way
