Now Edaddy didn't like trouble, but if Hit came aElong
AEveryone that Eknew him, knew which side that he would be Hon
He Anever was a Ehero, or this Acounty's shining Elight
But you could C#malways find him Astanding up for Hwhat he thought was Eright
He'd say, you've Egot to stand for something or you'll Afall for anyEthing
You've Egot to be your own man not a puppet on a Hstring
Never Acompromise what's Eright and upAhold your family Ename
You've F#mgot to E/G#stand for Asomething or you'll Hfall for anyEthing

Now we Emight have been better off or Howned a bigger Ehouse
If Adaddy had done more, Egivin' in, or a little more backing Hdown
But we Aalways had Eplenty, just Aliving his adEvice
WhatC#mever you do toAday, you'll have to Hsleep with toEnight
He'd say, you've Egot to stand for something or you'll Afall for anyEthing
You've Egot to be your own man not a puppet on a Hstring
NeverA compromise what's Eright and upAhold your family Ename
You've F#mgot to E/G#stand for Asomething or you'll Hfall for anyEthing
I Aknow that things are Edifferent than they Awere in daddy's Edays
But I Astill believe what makes a man really hasn't Hchanged
You've Egot to stand for something or you'll Afall for anyEthing
You've Egot to be your own man not a puppet on a Hstring
Never Acompromise what's Eright and upAhold your family Ename
You've F#mgot to E/G#stand for Asomething or you'll Hfall for anyC#mthing
You've F#mgot to stand for Asomething or you'll Hfall for anyEthing
