Everybody's Got a Story

She had a couple different daddies

Could never make her momma happy

And her skinny little sister

Got all the attention

So she slept with half the town

And when the gossip got around that she was fast

She blamed her past

We've all got our issues

A lotta life we gotta live through

A dozen different reasons to fall apart

So don't start with all that for me

'Cause everybody's got a story that'll break your heart

You blame the drinking on your childhood

You blame the school 'cause you don't talk good

Blame the drive through for the weight gain

Your hot temper on your last name

You blame your ex for your divorce

And the judge for the child support that you gotta pay

And you'd blame God if you prayed

Yeah, we've all got our issues

All the things we gotta get through

A dozen different reasons to fall apart

So don't you start with all that for me

'Cause everybody's got a story that'll break your heart

I could sit and talk for days about what the world's put me through

And when you point a finger, there's three more pointing back at you

We've all got our issues

All the things we gotta get through

A dozen different reasons I could fall apart

So I don't wanna hear that for me

'Cause everybody's got a story

And we've all got a cross to bear

And nobody's life is fair

So don't you start with all that for me

'Cause everybody's got a story that'll break your heart
