[Verse 1]

Oh yeah

Ain't gonna lie, I can count on both hands

My down to ride 'til the day I die friends

To get them, I'd like to think

That I'm few and far between

Guys like me, you want in an alley with ya

Up a creek, ain't a doubt I'm gonna paddle with ya

Go to bat, go to church, go to battle with ya

They can say what they want about me, but

[Chorus]

The ones that need me got me

The ones that doubt me can't stop me

Even the ones that said, “Forget him.”

You can bet they ain't forgot me

Either wanna hit me or hold me

Those that hate me don't know me

And the ones that don't trust anybody trust me

Yeah, the ones that like me love me

[Verse 2]

Speak my mind, don't mind who's listenin'

I'll ask forgiveness, 'fore I ask permission

Least with me you know what you're gettin'

You may not get a thing about me, but

[Chorus]

The ones that need me got me

The ones that doubt me can't stop me

Even the ones that said, “Forget him.”

You can bet they ain't forgot me

Either wanna hit me or hold me

Those that hate me don't know me

And the ones that don't trust anybody trust me

Yeah, the ones that like me love me

[Bridge]

Yeah, they love me

And I ain't perfect, I'm a simple man

I got a sinner's mind, but I can fold my hands

I ain't afraid to pray and I do know who I am, yeah

[Chorus]

And the ones that need me got me

Ones that doubt me can't stop me

Even the ones that said, “Forget him.”

Bet your ass they ain't forgot me

Either wanna hit me or hold me

Those that hate me don't know me

And the ones that don't trust anybody trust me

Yeah, the ones that like me love me

[Outro]

The ones that like me love me

And if you don't

Probably a pretty good chance I don't like you either
