Take It Like A Man - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

She took the dog and my old six-string

Took her cherokee down sycamore street

Didn't use a blinker or tap them brakes

Her pretty middle finger was a goodbye wave

Now that girl's gone, I can break down, or saddle up and be strong

And take it like a man with a little hurt on it

Heartbreak ain't gonna break your heart

Daddy always said "rub a little dirt on it"

Wash it on down downtown at the bar

Take the jukebox for a ride

Put her "goodbye" on ice

Stay here and drink all night like Merle

Take it like a man who just lost his girl

I can throw a pity party with the man in the mirror

But that ain't never got no man nowhere

I throw on my boots and my pearl snap shirt

I can be a boy about missing her or I can

Take it like a man with a little hurt on it

Heartbreak ain't gonna break your heart

Daddy always said "rub a little dirt on it"

Wash it on down downtown at the bar

Take the jukebox for a ride

Put her "goodbye" on ice

Stay here and drink all night like Merle

Take it like a man who just lost his girl

And I can cry in my cup, or find a neon light

And drink em on down, and suck it on up

And take it like a man with a little hurt on it

Heartbreak ain't gonna break your heart

Daddy always said "rub a little dirt on it"

Wash it on down downtown at the bar

Take the jukebox for a ride

Put her "goodbye" on ice

Stay here and drink all night like Merle

Take it like a man who just lost his girl

Yeah, take it like a man (take it like a man)

Take it like a man (take it like a man)

Who just lost his girl

Bye bye!
