(Music)
I was reckless and wild, back when I was a child
Doing things I shouldn't do
One day I got caught, in my innocence lost
Breaking one too many rules
Daddy took me out behind that big old house
Cut a branch from a hickory tree
He whittled it down, and he laid it on the ground
And this is what he said to me
Ain't never been a right way to do something wrong
There's a time to reflect, and a time to move on
So don't plant your seeds in a field full of stones
Ain't never been a right way to do something wrong
(Music)
Well I grew up in lieu of that day
Took my daddy's words and tucked them away
As time went by, I understood
That life ain't hard if the heart is good
Well, my young boy got a shiner in school
He was fightin' in class, he thought it was cool
Well I sat him down when the anger was gone
And took my daddy's words and I just passed them along
Ain't never been a right way to do something wrong
There's a time to reflect, and a time to move on
So don't plant your seeds in a field full of stones
Ain't never been a right way to do something wrong
If it ain't right you better leave it alone
Ain't never been a right way
Ain't never been a right way
Ain't never been a right way to do something wrong
(Music)
