Well, the first time I went out on my own I was a young man, almost seventeen
right down to the day. Well, I packed up all my things, grabbed my bag and
kissed my mother and told her that I'd be back some day...

So, I jumped into the back of an eighteen wheeler and ignored 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 your heavy a__!��?

I wanna go there and I'm not scared.
Our turn's just begun...
Oh yeah, Life goes by so d___ quickly and for me, I wanna have some fun.

Now, Looking back on all the days gone by I sit and wonder what it would be
like if I never went away? Would I see the world the way I do? the memories
that brought me to this place that I call my home today?

I wanna go there and I'm not scared.
Our turn's just begun...
Oh yeah, Life goes by so d___ quickly and for me, I wanna have some fun.
Life goes by so d___ quickly and for me, I wanna have some fun.

So be in my head (in my head) when I feel my whole world falls apart. In the
end, I'll be alright (alright).

Well, the first time I went out on my own I was a young man almost seventeen right down to
the day. Well, I packed up all my things, grabbed my bag and kissed my mother
and told her that I'd be back some day...

I wanna go there and I'm not scared.
Our turn's just begun...
Oh yeah, Life goes by so d___ quickly and for me, I wanna have some fun.
