You've Got To Stand For Something
Recorded by Charley Pride
Written by Buddy Brock and Aaron Tippin
C G7 C
Now daddy didn't like trouble if it came along
F C G7
Every one that knew him knew which side that he would be on
F C F C
He never was a hero or this county's shining light
F
But you could always find him standing up for
G7 C
What he thought was right
F C
He'd say you've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything
G7
You've got to be your own man not a puppet on a string
F C F C
Never compromise what's right and uphold your family name
Dm F G7 C
You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything
G7 C
We might of been better off or owned a bigger house
F C G7
If daddy had done more given in or a little more backing down
F C F C
But we always had plenty just living his advice
F G7 C
What ever you do today you'll have to sleep with tonight
Repeat #2
F C F C
I know that things are different than they were in daddy's day
F G7
But I still believe what makes a man really hasn't changed
F C
He'd say you've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything
G7
You've got to be your own man not a puppet on a string
F C F C
Never compromise what's right and uphold your family name
Dm F G7 F
You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything
Dm F G7 C
You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything
