lyrics

Some men would beg you for mercy.
Some would submit or concede.
Some men would repent, or forgive, or forget,
But those are men that I’ll never be.

Some men would pack up their guitars.
Some would put down the whiskey.
Some men would get right, and find honest work,
But those are men that I’ll never be.

I never asked you for nothin’,
and I don’t require a scene,
but I’m gonna need more than simply ‘your word’
if you expect me to let you back in.

Some men would buckle in horror.
Some would grovel and scream.
Some men would go mad, and forfeit their lives,
But those are men that I’ll never be.

Some men would beg you for mercy.

Some would fall down to their knees.
But you built me wild,
and stubborn, and free,
And those are men that I just don’t choose to be
