"Bad Thing To Be Good At" lyrics

"Bad Thing To Be Good At"

Well, I've never been one for holding my tongue
I call out a lie when I see one
I don't do what I'm told, can't be bought or sold
A fool, I'm too old to be one
And 'round here I'm known for standing alone
And saying things that I won't take back
And I hear people say that I'm stuck in my ways
Like that's a bad thing to be good at

Like that's a bad thing to be good at
In a world full of liars and cheats
Maybe I missed a lot more than I swung at
But when I hit, I knocked out a few teeth
Yeah, I'm no good at doing what I should
I wear my don't-care like a badge
And I let freedom ring in these songs that I sing
And that ain't a bad thing to be good at

Now more than one time, I've been on the wrong side
Of the line that they drew just to cross me
I paid all kinds of hell for just being myself
I'm still counting all that it cost me
Yeah, and I felt the pull of the sheep and the wolves
And I ain't one to run with the pack
And I'm learning to pray at the end of the day
That ain't a bad thing to be good at

That ain't a bad thing to be good at
In a world full of liars and cheats
And maybe I missed a lot more than I swung at
But when I hit, I knocked out a few teeth
Yeah, I'm no good at doing what I should
I wear my don't-care like a badge
And I let freedom ring in these songs that I sing
And that ain't a bad thing to be good at

Yeah, I'm no good at doing what I should
I wear my don't-care like a badge
And I let freedom ring in these songs that I sing
And that ain't a bad thing to be good at
No, I let freedom ring in these songs that I sing
And that ain't a bad thing to be good at
