[00:00:00] Against The Grain - The Mick Lloyd Connection

[00:00:01] Written by：Bruce C. Bouton/Larry E. Cordle/Carl E. Jackson

[00:00:06] Folks call me a maverick

[00:00:08] Guess I ain't too diplomatic

[00:00:10] I just never been the kind to go along

[00:00:13] Just avoidin' confrontation

[00:00:15] For the sake of conformation

[00:00:17] And I'll admit I tend to sing a different song

[00:00:20] But sometimes you just can't be afraid

[00:00:22] To wear a different hat

[00:00:24] If Columbus had complied

[00:00:25] This old world might still be flat

[00:00:28] Nothing ventured nothing gained

[00:00:31] Sometimes you've got to go against the grain

[00:00:36] Well I have been accused

[00:00:38] Of makin' my own rules

[00:00:39] There must be rebel blood

[00:00:40] Just a runnin' through my veins

[00:00:43] But I ain't no hypocrite

[00:00:45] What you see is what you get

[00:00:46] And that's the only way I know

[00:00:48] To play the game

[00:00:50] Old Noah took much ridicule

[00:00:52] For building his great ark

[00:00:53] But after forty days and forty nights

[00:00:55] He was lookin' pretty smart

[00:00:57] Sometimes it's best to brave the wind and rain

[00:01:00] I havin' strength to go against the grain

[00:01:34] Well there's more folks than a few

[00:01:37] Who share my point of view

[00:01:38] But they're worried

[00:01:39] If they're gonna sink or swim

[00:01:42] They'd like to buck the system

[00:01:44] But the deck is tacked against 'em

[00:01:45] And they're a little scared

[00:01:46] To go out on a limb

[00:01:49] But if you're gonna make different

[00:01:50] If you gonna leave your mark

[00:01:52] You can't follow like a bunch of sheep

[00:01:54] You got to listen to your heart

[00:01:56] Go bustin' in like old John Wayne

[00:01:59] Sometimes you got to go against the grain

[00:02:05] Nothing ventured nothing gained

[00:02:08] Sometimes you've got to go against the grain
