Chris Janson – We Did It Anyway Lyrics

 

We Did It Anyway Lyrics by Chris Janson

 

We’d wake up, put our boots on
And head straight to that hayfield
On that no cab tractor sweatin’ every summer
We’d lace up our cleats
And put our helmets on twice a day
Even though that farmers bank sign said a hundred
Yeah, we worked out in the dirt
It didn’t matter how much sweat was on our shirt
We did it anyway
It was the only way we knew
We did it our way
Just like they told us not to do
We drank a beer, we had a chew
We got wild, howled at the moon
We were way too young to care what people say
We did it anyway
We’d drag a flatbed wagon with some guitars on the back
Pour some diesel, light a fire on 80 acres
Yeah, we’d put on a show, play that southern rock ‘n’ roll
‘Til the cops showed up or we blew out the breakers
We drank ’em cold, we drank ’em hot
We didn’t give a damn what anybody thought, now
We did it anyway
It was the only way we knew
We did it our way
Just like they told us not to do
We drank a beer, we had a chew
We got wild, howled at the moon
We were way too young to care what people say
We did it anyway
Every night and day
Didn’t know no other way
Yeah, that’s just the way we were born and raised, yeah

We did it anyway
Yeah, that’s the only way we knew
We did it our way
Just like they told us not to do
We drank a beer, we had a chew
We got wild, howled at the moon
We were way too young to care what people say
Yeah, we wouldn’t have it any other way
We did it anyway, we did it anyway
We did it anyway
