Lyrics

1st. verse
Draw me a line and I'll cross over never looking back
over my shoulder,I've been down but I've never been
beat swinging from my heels always landing on my
feet,may sound rough but it's always been enough for
me to be my own man.


Chorus.
Gotta be your own man reach the top when you can,make
your mark take a stand try to be your own man
Follow me if you can,maybe then you'll understand,what
it takes to be a man,Gotta be your own man

2nd verse
Stood my ground when push come to shove,never messed
around with this thing called love,standing in the
corner with my back to the wall,swing a big stick let
em lay where they fall,may sound rough but it's always
been enough for me to be my own man

Chorus.
Gotta be your own man reach the top when you can,make
your mark take a stand try to be your own man
Follow me if you can,maybe then you'll understand,what
it takes to be a man,Gotta be your own man

Bridge.
Better watch my feet if your following me,can't always
trust what you think you see.Things don't always go as
planned stand up face it take it like a man.

3rd.verse
Lessons I learned from the time I was three,Grampa
taught me all his philosophy,Ah Grampa must have know
what it's all about reaching the top before they
carried him out, may sound rough but it's always been
enough for me to be my own man

Chorus.
Gotta be your own man reach the top when you can,make
your mark take a stand try to be your own man
Follow me if you can,maybe then you'll understand,what
it takes to be a man,Gotta be your own man

TAG.
Follow me if you can,Gotta be your own man
Make your mark take a stand,Gotta me your own man
