The Goin’ Gets Tough From The Getgo

[Verse]
Smack dab in the middle
Of a situation overlooked by fools
Tables turned, lessons learned
You get burned for playing by the rules
Time is lost, that's the cost
Oh brother, you get shit on in the end
Scrape for a dollar, you'll die smiling
Learning the same lessons once again

[Chorus]
The goin' gets tough from the get go, go man go
Oh brother, not another motherfucker gonna go now
(Right dude?) (That's right)
The goin' gets tough from the get go, go man go
Oh brother, not another motherfucker gonna go now
(Isn't that right, dude?) (That's right, Deaner) (So right)
The goin' gets tough from the get go, go man go
Oh brother, not another motherfucker gonna go now
(Isn't that right, Gener? Definitely...) (Tell me) (Tell me the truth) (Tell me once again)
The goin' gets tough from the get go, go man go
Oh brother, not another motherfucker (Oh check it out)
The goin' gets tough from the get go, go man go
Oh brother, not another motherfucker
The goin' gets tough from the get go, go man go (Oh yes)
Oh brother, not another motherfucker - uh, take it

[Verse]
Smack dab in the middle of a situation
Overlooked by fools
Tables turned, lessons learned
You get burned for playing by the rules
(You know that happens, Gener) (Don't I know)
The time is lost, that's the cost
Oh brother, you get shit on in the end
Scrape for a dollar, you'll die smiling
Learning the same lessons once again

[Chorus]
The goin' gets tough from the get go, go man go
Oh brother, not another motherfucker gonna go now
(Once again)
The going gets tough from the get go, go man go
Oh brother, not another motherfucker gonna go now
(I think it's over now, Gener!)
(Oh God!)
