A Little Dirt

Verse I
I was a tough kid, I didn't cry, when I fell off my bike in our gravel drive
I bruised my shin, black and blued my skin, I got back on and started riding again
I didn’t want my Mom to take my bike away, so, I brushed it off when I heard her say
Chorus
A little dirt won't hurt, it'll make you tough, it's just a part of growing up A little dirt won't hurt, once it's in your blood, you'll never get enough your gonna love it, get stuck in it, you’re gonna get it all over your shirt so, for what it's worth, a little dirt won't hurt
Verse II
I was on first base, fixing to steel, when I hit that dirt, the pain got real
It was a hard slide, I can’t deny, it hurt like hell, but I didn’t cry
I didn’t want my coach to pull me from the game, so, I walked it off and said I’ll be O.K.
Lead-Bridge
You can kick it off your boots, wash it out of your clothes, but you can’t remove the stains, ingrained in your soul.

Ya, you’re gonna love it, get stuck in it, you’re gonna get it all over your shirt, so for what it’s worth, a little dirt won’t hurt
