It's all right
Writer betty jean robinson

Couldn't tell my teacher my last name when i was in grade school
Stuttered when i talked and everybody laughed at me
I was a boy from across the tracks
I wore hand-me-downs on my back
But i swore that i'd never let the bitters get the best of me
Fell in love with a pretty little girl when i was older
And like a fool, i figured there was something i could make of me
But it wasn't in the cards 'cause her daddy was rich
And it was commonly plain to see
No matter what i did she would never take a likin' to me
But it's all right, it's all right
I come up the hard way and fought a good fight
And it's all right with me
It's all right, it's all right
I come up the hard way and fought a good fight
And it's all right with me
If i'm lucky i still got a few more years of livin'
And lady luck's never been a real good friend to me
I never asked a favour of a man in my life
But the preacher i'm gonna see
And tell him when i die say these words over me
Here lies a man who never asked the world for nothin'
He laboured in the sun and slept in the shade of a tree
His hands was calloused but his heart was warm
For his mind was pure and free
The good lord knows that's the way a man's got to be
It's all right, it's all right
I come up the hard way and fought a good fight
And it's all right with me
But it's all right, it's all right
I come up the hard way and fought a good fight
And it's all right with me
It's all right, it's all right
