THEY MADE ME DO IT

FROM THE DAY I WROTE MY FIRST LINE
STRUMMED MY FIRST CHORD ON THIS GUITAR
I KNEW THE THINGS I HAD TO DO
NOW LET ME TELL YOU WHAT THEY ARE
I WANTED TO HEAD DOWN THE ROAD
BE A HOUSEHOLD NAME LIKE MY PEERS
CAUSE THEY WERE MY INSPIRATION
NOW I WOULD LIKE TO JUST SAY CHEERS

CAUSE

YER KNOW
THEY MADE ME DO IT
YEH, YEH
THEY MADE ME DO IT
WHEN THEY ALL SHOWED ME WHAT THEY GOT
HAD TO PUT MY NAME ON THAT SPOT
HELL YEAH
THEY MADE ME DO IT

I'VE ALWAYS SAID THAT I DON'T CARE
HOW PEOPLE WANT TO LOOK AT ME
I'M NOW PAST THE POINT OF CARING
IT AIN'T MY PROBLEM WHAT THEY SEE
NOW AS I'VE TRAVELLED THROUGH THE YEARS
ALL OF THOSE FOOLS HAVE COME AND GONE
AND ALL THOSE TIMES THEY RIDICULED
GAVE ME THE STRENGH TO CARRY ON

NOW

YER KNOW
THEY MADE ME DO IT
YEH, YEH
THEY MADE ME DO IT
WHEN THEY SAID SHOW ME WHAT YOU GOT
HAD TO PUT MY NAME ON THAT SPOT
HELL YEAH
THEY MADE ME DO IT

(SOLO)

OF THE PEOPLE I'VE MET IN LIFE
NOT MANY HAVE GAINED MY RESPECT
BUT THERE HAS BEEN A SELECT FEW
THAT I'D SAY HAVE HAD AN EFFECT
MY FATHER HAD THE BEST ADVICE
NOW I LIVE BY EVERY WORD
NEVER GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAMS
WAS THE BEST I'VE EVER HEARD

YEH

YER KNOW
HE MADE ME DO IT
YEH, YEH
HE MADE ME DO IT
TOLD ME SHOW THE WORLD WHAT I GOT
HAD TO PUT MY NAME ON THAT SPOT
HELL YEAH
HE MADE ME DO IT

(REPEAT 2ND CHORUS)

YER KNOW
THEY MADE ME DO IT
