When I was young |
|
Sometimes |
|
I'd be a bad boy |
|
My pop would sit me down |
|
He'd put his belt back on tight |
|
He'd say apologize to your sister |
|
Treat the women right |
|
And I'd say mm-hmm |
|
And he'd give me that look |
|
And I'd say yes sir |
|
Well that happened many more times |
|
Due to various reasons |
|
They said |
|
I was a colourful boy |
|
I didn't play ball |
|
So I couldn't get the chicks |
|
Until I picked up a guitar |
|
And learned a couple licks |
|
And it went... |
|
Well it didn't sound exactly like that |
|
But anyhow, you get the picture |
|
But I found my focus |
|
And I found my steam |
|
For the rest of my life |
|
I'm gonna fight for this dream you know |
|
This time |
|
I'm going all the way |
|
This time |
|
I'm going all the way |
|
And after that everything changed |
|
I got what i wanted but my hunger |
|
Stayed the same |
|
Now that I'm older |
|
I've still got to learn things twice |
|
When we first met |
|
You were looking for a man |
|
I was acting like a boy |
|
And you gave me the hand |
|
And you said mm-hmm |
|
But I was so used to getting what |
|
I wanted Mm-hmm |
|
Well that happened many more times |
|
Due to various reasons |
|
Usually whiskey |
|
But you gave me another chance |
|
And this time it's good |
|
I'm so down for romance |
|
And treating you like |
|
I should And you say... |
|
Baby, baby |
|
Well you don't exactly say that |
|
But anyhow, you get the picture |
|
But we got our focus and we got our steam |
|
For the rest of our lives |
|
We're gonna fight for this dream you know |
|
This time we're going all the way |
|
This time we're going all the way |
|
So if you get it wrong, go back and do it right |
|
Find out what you love, and hold on to it tight |
|
This time we're going all the way |
|
This time we're going all the way |
