First thing I remember was askin' papa, "Why?",
|
For there were many things I didn't know.
|
And Daddy always smiled; took me by the hand,
|
Sayin', "Someday you'll understand."
|
|
Well, I'm here to tell you now each and ev'ry mother's son
|
You better learn it fast; you better learn it young,
|
'Cause, "Someday" Never Comes."
|
|
Well, time and tears went by and I collected dust,
|
For there were many things I didn't know.
|
When Daddy went away, he said, "Try to be a man,
|
And, Someday you'll understand."
|
|
Well, I'm here to tell you now each and ev'ry mother's son
|
You better learn it fast; you better learn it young,
|
'Cause, "Someday" Never Comes."
|
|
And then, one day in April, I wasn't even there,
|
For there were many things I didn't know.
|
A son was born to me; Mama held his hand,
|
Sayin' "Someday you'll understand."
|
|
Well, I'm here to tell you now each and ev'ry mother's son
|
You better learn it fast; you better learn it young,
|
'Cause, "Someday" Never Comes."
|
|
Think it was September, the year I went away,
|
For there were many things I didn't know.
|
And I still see him standing, try'n' to be a man;
|
I said, "Someday you'll understand."
|
|
Well, I'm here to tell you now each and ev'ry mother's son
|
You better learn it fast; you better learn it young,
|
'Cause, "Someday" Never Comes."
