Kris Kristofferson - The Heart lyrics

My daddy was a charmer, boys, he had a lot of style He was shining best at everything he did They said that he could lighten up a room with just a smile And i was proud as hell to be his kid It seemed like just as we were growing close together he was gone But it was long enough to show what i could be And i sometimes feel his spirit fill my body like a song And this is what my daddy sings to me Chorus: If they deal you down and dirty in a way you don't deserve You'll feel better if you take it like a man If you let 'em drive you crazy, boy, they'll shut your business down Shake it off and get your licks in when you can 'cause the heart is all that matters in the end They say every song is sweeter when you sing it from the heart I won't knock it 'cause i tried it and it's true I may never get to heaven, but i've seen a lot of stars And i'm here to bring the same advice to you. Chorus: If they deal you down and dirty in a way you don't deserve You'll feel better if you take it like a man If you let 'em drive you crazy, boy, they'll shut your business down Shake it off and get your licks in when you can 'cause the heart is all that matters in the end Yes, the heart is all that matters in the end The heart is all that matters in the end
