The Low Road
If you're like me, you always try to take the high road. But sometimes the insult is so great, the pain so profound that it's justifiable to take the low road.

You didn't have to be so mean
You didn't have to cause a scene
You didn't have to start a fight
You were really quite a sight.
You can't hurt me that way
And just walk away
Now I'm afraid
There's a price to be paid.
Well, I'm kicking off my two shoes
My goody days are through
I'm not walking down the high road
The one I always toed.
This time I'm gonna take the low road.
I'll get back on my feet
Because I haven't yet been beat
I only have to make it to the low road.
This time I'm gonna take the low road.
You didn't have to be unkind
You nearly made me lose my mind.
You've got me figured out all wrong,
Guess that's been true all along.
You didn't have to be so cruel,
You stood there acting like a fool.
But I always took the high road
No matter what it bode.
Well, I'm kicking off my two shoes
My goody days are through
I'm not walking down the high road
The one I always toed.
This time I'm gonna take the low road.
I'll get back on my feet
Because I haven't yet been beat
I only have to make it to the low road.
This time I'm gonna take the low road.
The devil whispered in my ear,
Get on your feet and dry your tears.
You haven't been this way before
But the low road is the road, for sure.
It's time for you to make amends
We have your honor to defend
Pick up the pieces of your heart
The low road is the place to start.
I'm kicking off my two shoes
My goody days are through
I'm not walking down the high road
The one I always toed.
This time I'm gonna take the low road.
I'll get back on my feet
Because I haven't yet been beat
I only have to make it to the low road.
This time I'm gonna take the low road, baby.
