Little boy walks in with a bloody nose,
got beat up on his way home from school, aga-in,
his dad caught him running out the back,
tears in his eyes and a baseball bat, oo revenge,
(bridge)
said son i won't stop ya, but before you go,
let me tell you a little story bout the toughest man i know,
(chorus:)
you hit him and he just turns the other cheek,
don't think for a minute he was weak,
cause in the end he showed them,
he was any-thing but frail,
they hammered him to a cross,
but he was tougher than nails,

well he droped that bat like it weighed a ton,
father put his arms around his son and said, just let it go--oo,
believe me i've been in your shoes,
had to ask myself what would jesus do, here's what i know,
(bridge)
whenever i'm in doubt, i look up what he said,
it's all there in the good book, in black and whitnd red,
(chorus:)
hit him and he just turns the other cheek,
don't think for a minute he was weak,
cause in the end he showed them,
he was any-thing but frail,
they hammered him to a cross,
but he was tougher than nails,
yea in the end he showed them,
he was any-thing but frail,
they hammered him to a cross,
but he was tougher than nails,
tougher than nails, oh, oh, oh,
