lyrics

My mom and Black Flag, they both told me the same thing
Said, "You know what, son? You gotta rise above"
My mom and Black Flag, they don't have too much in common
But I'll tell you, they both know what's up

When you're up shit creek ain't no time to stop rowing

I don't mind telling you, I get so tired
I don't mind telling you, the days seem so long
I'll tell you one thing, though, I ain't ever been a quitter
I'll tell you another thing, this ain't no quitting song

You better look somewhere else if you're trying to sing a quitting song

You lose women, you lose jobs, you lose apartments, you lose men
You can lose everything, but you can always steal it back again
There's nothing in the world they won't try to take from you
But you're the only person who can tell you when you're through

When the bullshit piles up, you just gotta keep going

I don't mind telling you, I get so tired
I don't mind telling you, the days seem so long
I'll tell you one thing, though, I ain't ever been a quitter
I'll tell you another thing, this ain't no quitting song

You better look somewhere else if you're trying to sing a quitting song
