Em
I was brought up in a back street
Working every night and day
                            Bm
Fought like a man for everything that I am
          Em           D Em D
I got the kickdown, yeah

       Em
Well I came back with a vengeance
Searching for that southern gold
                             Bm
One of these days I'm gonna blow their minds
           Em
Before the kickdown, yeah

Chorus:
       Am              G           Em
But we made it together, made it together
Am                  G               Em D Em D
Hell or high water's gonna take me away

       Am              G           Em
But we made it together, made it together
Am                   G              Em
Hell or high water's gonna take me away

Money came in, I bought everything
Tried to keep it all together
Hold on tight 'cause in the middle of the night
You get the kickdown, yeah

I was brought up in a back street
Working every night and day
I fought like a man for everything that I am
I got the kickdown
Well I fought like a man for everything that I am
I got the kickdown, yeah yeah yeah

Girl they say you can't keep a good man down
Not gonna let 'em kick me down, no no
We got to get out of this place
Girl, there's a better life for you and me
