The Road's Still Long

Growing up as a young boy-

Sometimes can be rough-

At six years old I was thinkin'-

Seven would be just enough-7

But I was wrong-

Ooo I was wrong yea-

Ten years old and I'm growin'-10

Thinkin' I got it sussed-

Mama said you'll be a fine young man-

I thought I already was-

But I was wrong-

Ooo Ip was wrong-

Cause when you get where you're going-

The road's still long-

Eighteen years I'm a rebel-

Thinkin' I'm pretty tough-

Daddy said you got a lot to learn-

I thought that I'd learned enough-

But I was wrong-

Ooo I was wrong yea-

Twenty-five was a good time-

Comin' into my own-

Climbed the mountain-

And I reached for the sky-

I thought that I had it all-

But I was wrong-

Ooo I was wrong-

[02:06.78]Cause when you get where you're going-

[02:10.07]The road's still long-

They all try to tell you-

But who are they to say-

Cause the best things that you learn-

You find out on your way-

No time for feelin' sorry-

Just time for being strong-

When you get where your going-

The road's still long-

Now I see where I come from-

Now I see where I am-

Now I see that you never really know-

So you just gotta do the best you can-

And that ain't wrong-

Ooo that ain't wrong no-

[03:45.49]Cause when you get where you're going-

[03:48.18]The road's still long-

When you get where you're going yea-
