When I was young
Back when life was fun,
I recall the words my papa said.
He said to be a man,
You gotta try and understand,
There's one thing that you must know.
If you want to go far,
Well, set yourself a goal,
And just hang on, just hang on.
And if you do this my son,
Your gonna make it someday,
Just hang on, my son.
That's the only way.
Well it wasn't long
When I left daddy's home,
All alone with no place to be.
With a great surprise,
It looked me straight in the eyes,
A red guitar and the dreams of a star.
If you want to go far,
Set yourself a goal,
And just hang on, just hang on.
And if you do this my son,
You're gonna make it someday,
Just hang on, my son.
That's the only way.
That's the only way.
You'll be a star some day.
I say, Lord, let me hear you play.
Play on...
