Back To The Woodshed
Triumph Over Adversity: Back to the Woodshed Story
Lyrics
I was a bad boy rocker and a high stakes roller
I used to be a rebellious rocker and took high risks.
Too much of a good time, had to start over
Excessive indulgence led to a need for a fresh start.
A year on the streets and another in the pen
Spent a year on the streets and another in prison.
I got the scars for the show and I'm back again
Physical scars from experiences, but I'm back.
Well it's alright
Despite challenges, everything is okay.
I'll take to the jaw but I'll still stay standing
Willing to endure hardships but remain resilient.
And it's alright
Reaffirming that things will be fine.
Gotta make a new plan then-a drop the hammer
Need a new strategy, ready to take decisive action.
'Cause I'm down for the count but I'm far from dead
Though facing difficulties, I'm not defeated.
I'm going back to the woodshed
Deciding to return to a place of practice and improvement (woodshed).
Paying all the bills down to my last dollar
Financial struggles, almost broke.
Boss calls me over says they got to cut some hours
Job hours being cut, additional challenges.
I work it to the bone I guess my thanks
Worked hard without proper recognition.
So I gotta find another way to take it to the bank
Seeking alternative ways to make a living.
My ex-boyfriend, well, he's another story
Referencing a problematic ex-boyfriend.
A taker and a faker and a bucket of worry
Describing the ex-boyfriend as deceitful and burdensome.
He took it too far and barely left alive
Ex-boyfriend faced severe consequences, almost died.
I damn near fixed him with a 45
Used force (45) to deal with the ex-boyfriend.
Well it's alright
Despite challenges, everything is okay.
It's pulling me down but I'll just push higher
Challenges are dragging me down, but I'll persevere.
And it's alright
Enduring difficulties, committed to surviving.
My feet are to the fire but I'm a survivor
Despite setbacks, I'm a survivor.
'Cause I'm down for the count but I'm far from dead
Though facing difficulties, I'm not defeated.
I'm going back to the woodshed
Deciding to return to a place of practice and improvement (woodshed).
Broke down, hungry but I'm gonna get fed
In a tough situation but determined to overcome.
I'm going back to the woodshed
Choosing to go back to the woodshed for improvement.
Well it's alright
Challenges are dragging me down, but I'll persevere.
It's pulling me down but I'll just push higher
Enduring difficulties, committed to surviving.
And it's alright
Despite setbacks, I'm a survivor.
My feet are to the fire but I'm a survivor
Though facing difficulties, I'm not defeated.
'Cause I'm down for the count but I'm far from dead
Deciding to return to a place of practice and improvement (woodshed).
I'm going back to the woodshed
Choosing to go back to the woodshed for improvement.
Broke down, hungry but I'm gonna get fed
In a tough situation but determined to overcome.
I'm going back to the woodshed
Choosing to go back to the woodshed for improvement.
