You Can't Tell Me Nothin'

The day that I turned eighteen

They said boy set down that six string

It’ll lead you down a lost highway

That whiskey drinkin, up all night

Smokey bars and neon lights

Gonna gonna put you in an early grave

Oh but I just kept on pickin, turned it up too loud to listen, knowin I was gonna prove em wrong some day

Cause I’m the hard headed kind with a one track mind

And you can’t slow it down when it starts runnin

No matter what they say, I do it my own way,

Cause when I get my heart set on somethin

You can’t tell, You can’t tell me nothin

Naw You can’t tell, you can’t tell me nothin

When I said she was made for me, her daddy

Straight up disagreed said I was wild and she was too young

Ya but I proved a boy could be a man, when I slipped a diamond on her hand,

They called us crazy, but we just called it love

Cause I’m the hard headed kind with a one track mind

And you can’t slow it down when it starts runnin

No matter what they say, I do it my own way,

Cause when I get my heart set on somethin

You can’t tell, You can’t tell me nothin

Naw You can’t tell, you can’t tell me nothin

This is for the hard head, hard wired outlaws

Out running county roads, flipping the bird

As you fly out of that nowhere town

You can’t tell me nothin

Cause I’m still wrapped up in her arms

I’m still picking on this damn guitar

And I’m still taking things just a little bit too far

Cause I’m the hard headed kind with a one track mind

And you can’t slow it down when it starts runnin

No matter what they say, I do it my own way,

Cause when I get my heart set on somethin

You can’t tell, You can’t tell me nothin

Naw You can’t tell, you can’t tell me nothin

Ya you can try like hell, but you can’t tell

Naw you can’t tell me nothin, yeah yeah

Naw you can’t tell me nothin

Naw you can’t tell me nothin
