(aaron tippin/butch curry)



I've walked the straight and narrow and i've worn a rebel's brand

Sometimes i've had to go without for bein' my own man

I've rallied to the cause when i knew the cause was right

I've cut against the grain, but i've kept my peace of mind

And i wouldn't have it any other way

If there's a price for bein' me, that's one i'll have to pay

I'll take the good and bear the bad until my dyin' day

I wouldn't have it any other way

Oh, i wouldn't have it any other way



I could have taken a beaten path every time trouble starts

I'd rather take a beatin' than to ever cross my heart

Stickin' to my guns, can't be sold or bought

Holdin' to my honor no matter what the cost



And i wouldn't have it any other way

If there's a price for bein' me, that's one i'll have to pay

I'll take the good and bear the bad until my dyin' day

I wouldn't have it any other way

Oh, i wouldn't have it any other way



I wouldn't have it any other way
