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
