Lyrics[]
Left my home when I was young
Sold my heart for a song
I may be wrong
To think you'd sing along
But the hardest thing I ever had to do
Was stand up straight and try to love you
Playing cards in motel rooms
I can't take calls they won't get through
You know this life
But that don't make you right
Still the hardest thing I ever had to do
Was stand up straight and try to love you
Changing strings and breaking town
Drank so much I damn near drowned
Can't get much rest
Living like this
Still the hardest thing I ever had to do
Was stand up straight and try to love you [x2]
Oh the hardest thing I ever had to do
Was stand up straight and love you
