Backbone lyrics - Daughtry

When you're hurting deep down

When you're feelin' like you're never gonna dig your way out

Never gonna dig your way out

Keep pushing up the river

Keep mining for the silver

'Til you've struck gold

Gotta weather the storm

'Cause it can't rain forever, no

I'm telling you

We all fall on hard times, you know

Each day is a hard climb, you know

Some days your body has to carry on

So you gotta show a little backbone

You know, you know, you know

You gotta show a little backbone

These troubles, so real

We're all facing temptations

And our own fears

Year after year

But it can't rain forever, no

I'm telling you

We all fall on hard times, you know

Each day is a hard climb, you know

Some days your body has to carry on

So you gotta show a little backbone

You know, you know, you know

You gotta show a little backbone

(You gotta show a little backbone)

You know (you gotta show a little backbone)

You gotta show a little backbone

Are you strong enough, to get back up?

When the chains hold you to the ground

So let's break 'em down, yeah, uh

Let's break 'em down

Let's break 'em down

Whoa, I'm telling you...

We all fall on hard times, you know

Each day is a hard climb, you know

Some days your body has to carry on

So you gotta show a little

We all fall on hard times, yeah

Each day is a high climb, you know

We all fall on hard times, you know

(So you gotta show a little backbone)

We all fall on hard times, yeah

You know each day is a high climb, you know

We all fall on hard times

Each day is a high climb, you know

So you gotta show a little backbone
