I've just begun to understand
|
I'm twenty-three and in my hand
|
I hold responsibility to my friends and my family
|
I've just begun to understand
|
This boy is going to be a man
|
|
This life, you'll see
|
That nothing's gonna come for free
|
This life, you'll find
|
That nothing's gonna change my mind
|
Tonight
|
|
I've just begun to know for sure
|
I'm thirty-three and in my store
|
I stock the shelves with dignity for myself
|
And my community
|
I've just begun to know for sure
|
That girl deserves a whole lot more
|
|
I leave it up to you
|
I don't know what to do
|
I leave it in your hands
|
|
I've just begun to understand
|
I'm forty-three, I own this land
|
I share responsibility with my wife for our posterity
|
I've just begun to understand
|
What it means to be a working man
|
|
This life, you'll see
|
That nothing's gonna come for free
|
This life, you'll find
|
Just looking; for some peace of mind
|
Tonight
