Oh yeah! Didn't take nothin' that I didn't need Cause they didn't offer classes in what I wanted to be They didn't offer manhood responsibility Had to learn it the hard way Earn my degree in the streets Graduated from hard knocks I got my education And hard knocks Gettin' in and out of situations Hard knocks Got the bumps and the bruises to prove it Hard knocks! Can't bust through the ceilling without feelin' the burn And I ain't got nothin' that I did not earn Chasin' that dollar still hittin' the books Studying Donnie and Stevie Learn to sail the hooks Talk about those hard knocks SongtexteGot the bumps and the bruises to prove it Hard knocks got the rhyme and the reason to choose it Hard knocks out on the streets Hard knocks Had a real good teacher named Mr. Life Didn't teach no chemistry But he taught me how to fight Didn't teach biology But I learned it from the birds and the bees Said stay close to your friends Even closer to your enemies oh yeah yeah yeah yeah thast's right oh yeah yeah yeah yeah thast's right oh yeah yeah yeah yeah so right I graduated from hard knocks I got my education And hard knocks Gettin' in and out of situations Hard knocks Got the bumps and the bruises to prove it Hard knocks! Feeling at my soul, all the heads in pain From my hard knocks I've got the bumps and the bruises to prove it Deep inside, oh yeah Aus Songtexte Mania
