Well you never liked them much

But I broke out these old boots again

Gonna jump in that old truck

Head down to the bar and hang out with an old friend

Been a while since I fired up a cigarette

And got drunk on some draft beer

Well where I'm going tonight

There's a good chance you won't want me back here

I tried to be what you were looking for

But I can't do that anymore.

I'm better at being at who I am

Better at letting my rebel run

And nothing about me worth a damn

If I can't be my old man's son

Your world and mine are worlds apart

This 'square peg, round hole' thing's too hard

Being something that ain't never had a chance

I'm better at being who I am.

I wasn't ever gonna change

I don't know who in the hell I thought I was kiddin'

For a little while there it seemed like the sex would make it all alright but it didn't

This ain't my side of the tracks

I got good at forgetting that.

I'm better at being who I am

Better at letting my rebel run

Ain't nothing about me worth a damn

If I can't be my old man's son

Your world and mine are worlds apart

This 'square peg, round hole' thing's too hard

Being something I ain't never had a chance

I'm better at being back on my side of town

Back down to earth

A blue jean boy and a flannel shirt

I'm just not what you deserve

For what it's worth, for what it's worth.

I'm better at being at who I am

Better at letting my rebel run

And nothing about me is worth a damn

If I can't be my old man's son

Your world and mine are worlds apart

This 'square peg, round hole' thing's too hard

Being something I ain't never had a chance

I'm better at being who I am.
