If you want the lyrics, here they are:


                                       Eb5
If your gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
F5                                            Bb5
When you get knocked down you gotta get back up,
                                             Eb5
I ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer but I know enough, to know,
F5                                      Bb5
If your gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough


                               Eb5
I lit my brain with rotgut whisky
F5                           Bb5
Till my pain was chicken fried
                                 Eb5
I've had dudes with badges frisk me,
F5                          Bb5
Teach me how to swallow pride


                              Eb5
I took advice no fool would take
F5                             Bb5
I got some habits, I can't shake
                                             Eb5
I ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer but I know enough, to know,
F5                                      Bb5
If your gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough


                                       Eb5
If your gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough!
F5                                            Bb5
When you get knocked down you gotta get back up.
                                   Eb5
That's the way it is in life and love
F5                                     Bb5
If your gonna be dumb you gotta be tough.


                                    Eb5
I've been up and down and down and out
F5                               Bb5
I've been left and right and wrong
                                 Eb5
Will walk the walk and run my mouth
F5                               Bb5
Been on that short end for to long
                                        Eb5
But if they gave metals for honkie tonk f#ck wars
F5                                      Bb5
Hell I'd keep mine in my chest o' drawers
                                         Eb5
Well my IRS bills and divorce papers and all that stuff
F5                                       Eb5
If your gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough!


EVERYBODY!

                                       Eb5
If your gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough!
F5                                            Bb5
When you get knocked down you gotta get back up.
                                             Eb5
I ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer but I know enough, to know,
F5                                      Bb5
If your gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
F5                                      Bb5
If your gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough

One more time!
                                       Bb5
If your gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough

END.
