Downside Of Growing Up
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Pack your bags and hug your mom
Been dreaming about leaving for so long
You start to cry as you crank the truck
Yeah, that's the downside of growing up
Fixin' up your brand new place
First day in and something breaks
Your dad ain't there to get you unstuck
Yeah, that's the downside of growing up
That's alright, that's okay
It's just the way you find your way
It's the road you gotta take to get where you're going
You're gonna twist, you're gonna turn
But it's how you're gonna learn
A lot about life, a lot about love
On the downside of growing up
It starts out as a simple date
Before too long, he's your everything
'Til he leaves you standing in a cloud of dust
Yeah, that's the downside of growing up
That's alright, that's okay
It's just the way you find your way
It's the road you gotta take to get where you're going
You're gonna twist, you're gonna turn
But it's how you're gonna learn
A lot about life, a lot about love
On the downside of growing up
I know what you're feeling
Yeah, I understand
'Cause where you are is where I've been
And where I still am
And I'm alright, I'm okay
Yeah, I know I'll find my way
On the road I gotta take to get where I'm going
I'm gonna twist, I'm gonna turn
But it's how you're gonna turn
A lot about life, a lot about love
On the downside of growing up
A lot about life, a lot about love
On the downside of growing up
