I’M NOT GONNA TAKE IT NO MORE

[V1]
I remember when pay day used to be cool,
Hell, I could pay every debt that was due,
But now the rents keep rising, and bills pile up
And why I haven’t a clue.

I’m just a hardworking guy in a redneck Ford,
I did the things they told me I should.
I played by the rules and kept my head down,
But it really didn’t do me much good.

[CH]
AND I’M NOT GONNA TAKE IT NO MORE
No, I’M NOT GONNA TAKE IT NO MORE
I’ve got two strong hands,
And a whole lot of pride,
And fast wheels to get out of town.
So I’M NOT GONNA TAKE THIS NO MORE

[V2
School didn't teach us the real facts of life,
How many more will end up the same?
I can read and do math, I appreciate that,
But it’s only part of the game.

I don’t blame my coach or the Baptist preacher,
They tried to help, they know how it feels.
But what can you learn from well-meaning folks
who can’t even pay their own bills?

[CH]
And I’M NOT GONNA TAKE IT NO MORE
No, I’M NOT GONNA TAKE IT NO MORE
I’ve got two strong hands,
And a whole lot of pride
And fast wheels to get out of town,
And I’M NOT GONNA TAKE THIS NO MORE

[BRIDGE]
Look around for yourself and tell me I’m wrong
We’re entangled in a nasty trap.
The fat cats and politicians write all the rules,
And TV just sells us more crap.

[V3]
Don’t know where I’ll end up tonight,
I can drive that truck pretty far. 
But I don’t want to end up another cliché,
Staying drunk in a roadside bar.

[CH]
And I’M NOT GONNA TAKE IT NO MORE
No, I’M NOT GONNA TAKE IT NO MORE
I’ve got two strong hands,
And a whole lot of pride,
And fast wheels to get out of town,
I might not figure out 
what life’s all about
But damn I’m gonna give it a run 
And I’M NOT GONNA TAKE THIS NO MORE
No I’M NOT GONNA TAKE THIS NO MORE.
No, I’M NOT GONNA TAKE IT NO MORE.
