The Hard Way

[Intro]
A one, a two
A one two three
Hit it fellas

[Chorus]
Sometimes you gotta learn the hard way
Sometimes you learn with ease
Sometimes you git to be the mousetrap
Other times you got to be the cheese
Sometimes you think you're hot stuff
Then you end up in the ashtray
Sometimes you just gotta learn the hard way

Well last duck huntin' season
I sharpened up my knife (sharpened it, sharpened it)
Though most duck hunters use a shotgun of some sort
But I prefer to slice and dice (stab a duck right in the neck)
Now I can't afford a real boat (uh-huh)
I bought a raft at Bass Pro Shop (?)
And when I tried to stab me a mallard
I stabbed my own boat and the sumbitch popped

So I'm out there in the middle of the lake, boat's popped, I'm tryna grab onto the duck now save my life, he's lookin' at me like goddamn this (?) tried to stab me now, you think I'm on Baywatch sum'n like that

[Chorus]
Sometimes you gotta learn the hard way
Sometimes you learn with ease
Sometimes you git to be the mousetrap (ye)
Other times you got to be the cheese (the cheese)
Sometimes you think you're hot stuff
Then you end up in the ashtray (put ya out)
Sometimes you just gotta learn the hard way

Shit ain't easy man

Well I had to change my truck tire
And I didn't have no jack (I used to have one but my neighbor borrowed it)
So I got some help from my big ol' wife
She put that sumbitch on her back (she a solid three fifty pounds know what I mean?)
But after awhile she got tired
While I was still underneath that truck getting that spare
She dropped the truck on me and I broke my leg
Now I'm rollin' in a dang wheelchair

Man my wife last night tried to get frisky, hop up on the dang wheelchair, hoppin' up and down on me, pop a tire on my damn wheelchair! Didn't even know you could pop a tire on a goddamn wheelchair

[Chorus]
Sometimes you gotta learn the hard way (yes you do)
Sometimes you learn with ease (sometimes you learn with ease)
Sometimes you git to be the mousetrap (?)
Other times you got to be the cheese (eat that cheese (?))
Sometimes you think you're hot stuff
Then you end up in the ashtray (right next to all the cigarette butts you know what I'm sayin?)
Sometimes you just gotta learn the hard way
