(Mark James)
|
I recall when I was young
|
My papa said don't cry
|
Life is full of ups and downs
|
Like a roller coaster ride
|
There'll be times you'll get so scared,
|
Rollin' down these hills
|
But hang on tight with all your might
|
Cause you don't know what you feel
|
|
You go up, down, all around
|
On a cycle that's never endin'
|
You got on this train when you were born
|
And the wheels just keep on spinnin'
|
Like a roller coaster, it keeps going faster
|
I'm going faster, thrills comin' at ya
|
And I walk down, all around
|
Like a roller coaster
|
|
I left home at just sixteen
|
Thought I'd have some fun
|
Hitched a ride on a diesel truck
|
Headed for Washington
|
I know now what my papa meant
|
When he told me heart to heart
|
Son, you'll find out soon enough
|
Life is just an amusement park
|
|
You'll thrill, like a kid
|
You'll get so excited
|
You hang on tight with all your might
|
As if your hearts ignited
|
|
You go up, down, all around
|
On a cycle that's never endin'
|
You got on this train when you were born
|
And the wheels just keep on spinnin'
|
Like a roller coaster, it keeps going faster
|
I'm going faster, thrills comin' at ya
|
And I walk down, all around
|
Like a roller coaster
|
