Mm
mmwmmmm
Folks call me the maverick.
guess I ain't too diplomatic.

Ijust never

been the kind to go along. I
Just avoidin' confrontation
for the sake of conformation.
and I'll admit I tend

to sing a different song.
But sometimes you just can't
be afraid to wear a different hat.
If Columbus had complied.
this old world might still be Hat.
Nothin' ventured. nothin' gained.

Sometimes you've got to

go against the grain.
Well. I have been accused
of making my own rules.

There must be rebel blood

just runnin' through my veins.
But I ain't no hypocrite-
what you see is what you got.
and that's the only way

I know to play the game.
Old Noah took much ridicule
for building his great ark.
but after forty days and forty nights

he was lookin' pretty smart.
They'd like to buck the system.
but the deck is stacked against 'em.
and they're a little scared

to go out on a limb.
Go bustin' in like Old John Wayne.

sometimes you got to

go against the grain.
Nothin' ventured. nothin' gained.

Sometimes you got to

go against the grain.
