"Give 'Er Hell" lyrics

'Bout the time I was six years old
Daddy handed me a helmet, said, "If you gon' hit the throttle
Give 'er hell"
Go give 'er hell

First drive in that truck had a lead foot leanin'
On the pedal, couldn't help myself, I gave 'er hell
I gave 'er hell

Give 'er hell, give 'er hell don't always work out
Like the way you was raised or how you want it to
Wish that I woulda known, maybe she'd be around
If slowin' down was somethin' I'd caught on to
I kept the throttle, hit the bottle, pushed the limit on it
The late nights, and bein' right, it had a limit on it
I been takin' it hard if you can tell
Had a little piece of Heaven, and damn, I gave 'er hell

She was mine, guess that I shoulda known
That me livin' that fast was only gonna keep her so long
She was gone
And the mistakes I made
Keep me up at night
And me wonderin' if I'm ever gonna get it right
'Cause

Give 'er hell, give 'er hell don't always work out
Like the way you was raised or how you want it to
Wish that I woulda known, maybe she'd be around
If slowin' down was somethin' I'd caught on to
I kept the throttle, hit the bottle, pushed the limit on it
The late nights, and bein' right, it had a limit on it
I been takin' it hard if you can tell
Had a little piece of Heaven, and damn, I gave 'er hell

Give 'er hell

I guess that's how I was ingrained
But if I want somebody to stay, then I can't
Give 'er hell
Yeah, I gave 'er hell

Give 'er hell, give 'er hell don't always work out
Like the way you was raised or how you want it to
Wish that I woulda known, maybe she'd be around
If slowin' down was somethin' I'd caught on to
I kept the throttle, hit the bottle, pushed the limit on it
The late nights, and bein' right, it had a limit on it
I been takin' it hard if you can tell
Had a little piece of Heaven, and damn, I gave 'er hell

I guess I gave 'er, yeah, I gave 'er
Why'd I give 'er? Damn, I give 'er hell
I guess I gave 'er, yeah, I gave 'er
Why'd I give 'er? Damn, I gave 'er hell
