Raised Right Eli Young Band

[Verse 1]
2 a.m., mama walking in
Tossing keys and tips, counting ones and tens
Smell like coffee and cigarettes
How could I forget?
How'd she say, "Just one hug then it’s back to bed"
Better not get back up again, yeah

[Verse 2]
7 a.m. was a diesel truck
Didn't always run, but Daddy fired it up
That rattle backing out of a gravel drive
Was watching him leave most all my life
But didn't know we were living check-to-check
Same way they been living since the day they met
Wasn’t easy, but I know

[Chorus]
We were raised right
We wеre hard times in a broke town
Wе were heads high
We were wild souls, we were lost prayers
We were "don't know how, but we'll get there"
Took some wrong turns, but we all turned out okay
We were raised right
