Mama says I've always been headstrong
Doing it my way, keeping her knees on the bedside praying
Late night waiting
The bible open and a light on
She ain't the only one I put through hell
Too stubborn and asking for no help
I couldn't quit, didn't give a shit
Had to find out for myself

I drove too fast around the turns
I lost control, crashed and burned
I learned to take my time and
Just keep it in between the lines
I loved too much for one broke heart
Poured too much whiskey on the scars
It's hard to turn your weak to strong
Still learning right from doing wrong

Sometimes the narrow road ain't straight
Kinda winding like a back road with no pain
No signs sometimes, you can get a little lost along the way

I drove too fast around the turns
I lost control, crashed and burned
I learned to take my time and
Just keep it in between the lines
I loved too much for one broke heart
Poured too much whiskey on the scars
It's hard to turn your weak to strong
Still learning right from doing wrong

I dug my holes and made mistakes
But I did it on my own
It made the man I am today
I might've never grown

I drove too fast around the turns
I lost control, crashed and burned
I learned to take my time and
Just keep it in between the lines
I loved too much for one broke heart
Poured too much whiskey on the scars
It's hard to turn your weak to strong
Still learning right from doing wrong
I'm better now than yesterday
No telling just how long it takes
It's hard to turn your weak to strong
Still learning right from doing wrong
From doing wrong
From doing wrong
