Right Where It Counts

Written by: Brian Gunn, Mark Gunn, Brian Steckler



We're alone in the room

Playing Hixin and Doom

And now you telling me goodbye

So you want us apart

Puts a knife in my heart

And a tear welling up in my eye



But let me remind you

How much you have been blind to

You've totally changed me

Mixed me up rearranged me

My hair how you like

Quit hanging with Mike

And now you repay me

By trying him

1st play me



I want you to know that you hit me too low

And that I can barely breath

If I told you that I'm bleeding inside would

You simply let me get off my knees

Let me get off my knees

That really hurts



Right where it counts

That's where ya hit me

Right where it counts

I'm on my knees

Right where it counts

Stop kicking me please

Right where it counts



I used to play football

I once was a goofball

But you didn't like that

No you didn't like that

The guys call me whipped

My popularity slipped

Because you just wanted a door mat

We shut out our friends

And I'd do it again

If you and I could get back on the highway

I thought we'd share our lives

Me husband you wife

Now I'm confused

And battered and I'm blue



Why are you so mean

Now you've ruptured my spleen

And my lowest extremity

If we were alone

And the parents weren't home

I'd yell a hundred obscenities



Right where it counts

That's where ya hit me

Right where it counts

I'm on my knees

Right where it counts

Stop kicking me please

Right where it counts



Right where it counts

That's where ya hit me

Right where it counts

I'm on my knees

Right where it counts

Stop kicking me please

Right where it counts



Uh, come on come on

To the bridge

If I could really love you

Well this is what would you'd do

Well baby I can love you

Right to the fields

Is this the way you show me

How much you love me

Or is there really something your trying to say



Right where it counts

That's where ya hit me

Right where it counts

I'm on my knees

Right where it counts

Stop kicking me please

Right where it counts



Right where it counts

That's where ya hit me

Right where it counts

I'm on my knees

Right where it counts

Stop kicking me please

Right where it counts



Right where it counts (repeats)
