Son, you don't have to fight to be a man."

Key Change: Db
There's someone for everyone, and Tommy's love was Becky. 
In her arms he didn't have to prove he was a man. 
One day while he was workin', the  Gatlin Boys came  callin'. 
They took turns at Becky, there wEre three of them. 
Tommy opened up the door, and saw his Becky cryin'. 
The torn dress, the shattered look was more than he could stand. 
He reached above the fireplace, and took down his daddy's picture. 
As his tears fell on his daddy's face, he heard these words again: 

Promise me son not to do the things I've done, 
Walk away from trouble if you  can. 
Now it don't mean you're weak, if you  turn the other  cheek. 
I hope you're old enough to understand, you don't have to fight tobe a man 

Key Change: D natural
The Gatlin boys just laughed at him when he walked into the barroom. 
One of the got up and hit him halfway cross the  floor. 
When Tommy turned around they said, " Hey look Old Yellow'sleavin'." 
But you could've heard a pin drop when Tommy stopped and locked thedoor. 
Twenty years of crawlin' was bottled up inside him. 
He wasn't holdin' nothin' back; he let 'em have it all. 
When Tommy left the barroom, not a Gatlin boy was standin'. 
And I heard him say these final words, as I watched the last one fall.

I promised you Dad, not to do the things you've done.
I walk away from trouble when I can, 
Now Please don't think I'm weak, I couldn't  turn the other cheek.
And Papa I sure hope you understand, sometimes you have to fight whenyou're a man.

Everyone considered him the Coward Of The County.
