Upside of the Ground

Mac McAnally

Well he loved the horses and he loved to ride
The sound of the spurs, The smell of rawhide
He had zero money and a whole lotta pride
He was hoping that would be enough
You know the first few times that a fellow gets thrown
It takes a mighty strong will just to get back on
You get a mouth full of dust and you break some bones
And you notice that the going gets tough

Yeah, welcome to the upside of the ground
It'll break your fall like an old ragdoll and toss you all around
Well up in the air you better be aware you still gotta come back down
Hey welcome to the upside of the ground

Well he gave it what he thought was the best he had
He was thinking to himself well it wasn't half bad
His mama was proud but his daddy looked mad
When they came to the rodeo
He said son if you're ever gonna amount to anything
You gotta work at least as hard as you dream
Maybe you got talent but from what I've seen
You got a long way to go

Hey welcome to the upside of the ground
It'll break your fall make a big man small and bounce you all around
Up in the air you better be aware that you still gotta come back down
Hey welcome to the upside of the ground

Well life is a little like a rodeo
You can clown around or you can watch the show
But if you want to ride friend you need to know
Not everybody wins a prize
Well now the moral of the story as far as I can tell
Is here on earth between heaven and hell
Anything worth doing is worth doing well
In the morning when you open your eyes

Hey welcome to the upside of the ground
It'll break your fall this big blue ball will bounce you all around
Up in the air you better be aware that you still gotta come back down
Hey welcome to the upside of the ground
Yeah welcome to the upside of the ground
