The Hard Way
Eric Church

Only fools would race down Grist Mill Road

Let alone in angry weather

That what I tell everyone I know

Now that I know better

That's a lesson I wish I woulda learned

Without havin' to watch my Mustang burn

Before my best buddy had to wind up hurt

An' his whole life changed

That's a lesson I wish I didn't learn the hard way

Only a fool would keep a diamond ring

In a box on the top of his closet

He came so close; he almost asked

It was right there in his pocket

That's a lesson I wish I woulda learned

Before standin' in the back row of that church

Watchin' her daddy givin' her

To the man who took my place

That's a lesson I wish I didn't learn the hard way

Regret's been know to give a man a beatin'

But I ain't in the mood for fightin' back this evenin'

Only fools don't take the time of day

They stay too busy runnin'

An' to stop just once to tell their Dad

Just how much they love him

That's a lesson I wish I woulda learned

Before that phone call came an' it was her

No, Momma never had to say a word

I knew it was too late

That's a lesson I wish I didn't learn the hard way
