[verse (1)]
i keep my Gfist raised time full Ctime against the world
Gsometimes with the family and Dsometimes with a girl
yeah, you Gthink i've learned my lesson, i'm a Cman who's been around
Gbut i could never keep that Dmiddle finger down
well, i'Gm still hanging on and i tChink (?) fools
i bGroke a lotta hearts and i bDroke a lotta rules
yet Gsomehow i survived with a Cbit of dummy luck
but Gi could never keep that fiDnger from sticking up
[chorus]
Gi could never keep, Ci could never keep
Gi could never keep my life from Dburning to the ground
you tGhink i've learned my lesson, i'Cm a man who's been around
but Gi could never keep that midDdle finger down
[instrumental]

[verse (2)]
i'm a gGrudge-holding jerk who starts Cfeuds with a wink
a sGharp-tongued sob who sDpeaks the boring things
i've Glearned from my losses and i kCnow when i'm wrong
still, Gmy life's sadder than an Dold country song
[chorus]
Gi could never keep, Ci could never keep
Gi could never keep my life from Dburning to the ground
you tGhink i've learned my lesson, iC'm a man who's been around
but Gi could never keep that midDdle finger down

[verse (3)]
so if you Glooked at my life, if you Ctook a little peak
you'd say, "good Glord, let it go, man, just Dturn the other cheek"
i don't know how to Glet it go, i just don't kCnow how to behave
i was Gborn with this affliction and i'll Dtake it to the grave
[chorus]
Gi could never keep, Ci could never keep
Gi could never keep my life from Dburning to the ground
you tGhink i've learned my lesson, iC'm a man who's been around
but Gi could never keep that midDdle finger down
Gi could never keep (no), Ci could never keep (no)
Gi could never keep my life from Dburning to the ground
you tGhink i've learned my lesson, Ci'm a man who's been around
but Gi could never keep that midDdle finger down
