|
Well the first time that I went out on my own |
|
I was a young man almost 17 right down to the day |
|
Well i packed up all my things |
|
Grabbed my bag and kissed my mother |
|
And I told her that I'd be back someday |
|
So I jumped into the back of and eighteen-wheeler head north |
|
Destination didn't even ask |
|
With the wisdom that my father gave me |
|
Ringing in my head so clearly |
|
"Son this world's gonna kick you in the ass" |
|
Chorus: |
|
I wanna go there and I'm not scared |
|
Our time's just begun, oh yeah |
|
Life goes by so damn quickly for me |
|
Wanna have some fun |
|
Now looking back on all the days gone by |
|
I sit and wonder what it would be like if I'd never went away |
|
Would I see the world the way I do |
|
The memories that brought me to |
|
This place that I now call my home today |
|
(chorus) |
|
Life goes by so damn quickly for me |
|
Wanna have some fun |
|
So beat my head (beat my head) |
|
When I feel the whole world falls apart |
|
In the end I'll be alright |
|
Well the first time that I went out on my own |
|
I was a young man almost 17 right down to the day |
|
Well i packed up all my things |
|
Grabbed my bag and kissed my mother |
|
And I told her that I'd be back someday |
|
(chorus) |
|
Life goes by so damn quickly for me |
|
Wanna have some fun |
