[Verse 1]
I'm the living result
Of a man, ooh that's been hurt a little too much
And I've tasted, uh huh, the bitterness of my own tears
Sadness, listen to this, is all my lonely heart can feel
[Chorus]
I can't stand up for falling down
I can't stand up for falling down
[Verse 2]
Simple that love is
Yet it confused me
Why I'm not loved, oh yeah, the way I should be
Listen, I've lived with heartaches
And I've roomed with fear
I've dealt with despair
And I've wrestled with tears
[Chorus]
Oh I can't stand up for falling down
I can't stand up for falling down
[Bridge]
The vow we made, oh yeah
You broke it in two
But that don't stop Sam and Dave from loving you
[Chorus]
I can't stand up for falling down
I can't stand up for falling down
