"Standing Against The Wind" lyrics

Pour yourself another round
Sit yourself right down
Tell you a story how
A man can be broken down
When I was a young child
I stood up straight and tall
Swore I'd never falter
Swore I'd never fall

But I've standing so long against the wind
The longer I've stood, the harder it's been
I've been standing so long against the wind
And I don't know that I can get back up again

They tell you you're the only one
The last of your kind
When you start to lose your way
When you start to lose your mind
When I was a young child
I stood up straight and tall
Swore I'd never falter
Swore I'd never fall

But I've standing so long against the wind
And the longer I've stood, the harder it's been
I've been standing so long against the wind
And I don't know that I can get back up again

I once was like a old oak tree
My roots beneath the ground
No storm could move me
No one could ever bring me down
Back when I was a young child
I stood up straight and tall
I swore I'd never falter
I swore I'd never fall

But I've standing so long against the wind
And the longer I've stood, the harder it's been
I've been standing so long against the howling wind
And I don't know if these bones will ever stand again
