That's Alright Songtext
von Payton Smith

Tell a lie when the truth hurts too much
Get her drunk, take her home, call it love
Just do what you′re told, don't ask no questions
If it feels good, do it, don′t second guess it
Listen up when money gets to talking
Find a drug when the sky gets to falling
Don't peek outside of the box you're in
Just follow the crowd and the shoe that fits

If that′s alright, I′d rather be wrong
If that's how it′s going, I'd rather get gone
If that′s the name of the game these days
You can count me out, I'd rather not play
If that′s the road to the top, I'd rather sit still
In the bed I made up on this hill
If I die with nothing more
Than peace of mind and some country songs
Well, that's alright, I′d rather be wrong


Pretty words are just some old words on a page
It ain′t worth a penny if it's American made
Don′t do it if it ain't been done before
Go and get it if somebody′s got a little bit more

If that's alright, I′d rather be wrong
If that's how it's going, I′d rather get gone
If that′s the name of the game these days
You can count me out, I'd rather not play
If that′s the road to the top, I'd rather sit still
In the bed I made up on this hill
If I die with nothing more
Than peace of mind and some country songs
Yeah, that′s alright, I'd rather be wrong

Yeah, I′d rather be wrong
Oh yeah

If that's hot, I'd rather be cold
If that′s what′s selling, then I ain't sold
If that′s what you think Jesus would do
I don't mind looking like the devil to you


If that′s alright, I'd rather be wrong
I don′t wanna be on the side you're on
We ain't gotta meet eye to eye
You can see it that way, you can call me blind
If that′s the road to the top, I′d rather sit still
In the bed I made up on this hill
If I die with nothing more
Than peace of mind and some country songs
Yeah, if that's alright, I′d rather be wrong

Yeah, yeah, I'd rather be wrong
(If that′s alright, I'd rather be wrong)
Rather be wrong, yeah
And that′s alright
