Play Hurt Lyrics

I was sittin on a bench
With my ankle taped up
Watching my team get beat like a drum
By a rival school
They were giving high fives
And acting cool

Tommy fouled out
And the coach looked around
Said 22 it looks like its down
To you going back in
Do you think you can go again

Bridge:
In the back of my mind
i saw an old sign
hanging up in the junior high gym
it says never give up
cause winners never quit
and quitters never win

Chorus:
Sometimes you gotta suck it up and
Go bite down on the bullet
Don't let no body know
Wrap it up
Walk it off
Tough it out
Dust of the dirt
Sometimes you gotta play hurt

I called my folks and told 'em she was the one
All they could say is we're happy for you son
It's about time
You left your rowdy ways behind

She figured out what she was destined for
Some other place and a little bit more
Than me I guess
I got the ring back UPS

Bridge:
For a while I thought I'd never smile
Like she made me smile again
Then I realized you can't sit around
And wait for your life to mend

Chorus:
Sometimes you gotta suck it up and
Go bite down on the bullet
Don't let no body know
Wrap it up
Walk it off
Tough it out
Dust of the dirt
Sometimes you gotta play hurt

I know you're feelin' all tore down
Life's been tough and you've hit rock bottom
Ain't nobody gonna do it for you
You gotta get up (gotta get up)
Try again (try again)
When the going get's tough
You gotta jump back in

Chorus:
Sometimes you gotta suck it up and
Go bite down on the bullet
Don't let no body know
Wrap it up
Walk it off
Tough it out
Dust of the dirt
Sometimes you gotta play hurt

Play hurt, play hurt
Wrap it up
Walk it off
Tough it out
Dust off the dirt
Sometimes you gotta play hurt
