Bumps and Bruises
Lyrics

I hopped on a five speed bike when I was six years old
My feet didn't touch the ground so I quickly lost control
Headin' down that grassy hill, slidin' to a stop
My elbow was bleedin' when my daddy picked me up

Bumps and bruises
Such a big little thing back then
Bumps and bruises
It took a few to make this boy a man

I was threatened by a bully in my freshman year
I was tired of getting pushed around and livin' life in fear
The last day of classes I looked him in the eyes
I hit him, he hit me back, but somehow I survived, with

Bumps and bruises
Such a big little thing back then
Bumps and bruises
It took a few to make this boy a man

Now it's fifty hour work weeks layin' bricks and stone
It's the least that I can do for the ones I love at home
When I put on my hardhat sometimes I crack a smile
A few bumps and bruises only makes life more worthwhile

Bumps and bruises
Such a small little price to pay
Bumps and bruises
To become the man who's standin' here today

Life taught me a lesson starting early on
What doesn't kill you will only give you...will only give you

Bumps and bruises
Such a big little thing back then
Bumps and bruises
It took a few to make this boy a man
