| Norma it ain’t no use
|
| Your little boy is outta control
|
| He’s got a burning fuse
|
| He’s got a broken circuit
|
| Started out way back when
|
| You took him to his first rodeo
|
| Those little eyes lit up
|
| That little heart was sealed in stone
|
| Mother just let him go
|
| You can’t stop the rain from falling
|
| He’s gonna ride that colt
|
| And one of them’s gonna end up broken
|
| Lordy what a price to pay
|
| All that work for all that trouble
|
| Before you accept your fate
|
| Love the man or walk away
|
| Oh yeah-yeah
|
| Whatcha gonna be when you grow up?
|
| Where you gonna be when the sun goes down?
|
| Will you ever quit when you’ve had enough?
|
| Oh, oh, oh, oh
|
| How in the world will you find your way
|
| When the lovin' is good
|
| But the lovin' won’t pay?
|
| Where you gonna go when the lights die out
|
| And the dust has settled down?
|
| Settle down
|
| Papa couldn’t understand
|
| Why he had to leave the station
|
| Taught him how to work the land
|
| «Boy your dreams ain’t worth the chasin»
|
| And up until the day he died
|
| The bridle could not ease his sorrow
|
| Cursed his passion and cursed his pride
|
| These are the final words he cried
|
| Oh
|
| Whatcha gonna be when you grow up?
|
| Where you gonna be when the sun goes down?
|
| Will you ever quit when you’ve had enough?
|
| Oh, oh, oh, oh
|
| How in the world will you find your way
|
| When the lovin' is good
|
| But the lovin' won’t pay?
|
| Where you gonna go when the lights die out
|
| And the dust has settled down?
|
| Settle down
|
| Oh, oh
|
| I said whatcha gonna be when you grow up?
|
| Where you gonna be when the sun goes down?
|
| Will you ever quit when you’ve had enough?
|
| Oh, oh, oh, oh
|
| How in the world will you find your way
|
| When the lovin' is good
|
| But the lovin' won’t pay?
|
| Where you gonna go when the lights die out
|
| And the dust has settled down?
|
| Settle down
|
| Whatcha gonna be when you grow up?
|
| Where you gonna be when the sun goes down?
|
| Will you ever quit when you’ve had enough?
|
| Oh, oh, oh, oh
|
| How in the world will you find your way
|
| When the lovin' is good
|
| But the lovin' won’t pay?
|
| Where you gonna go when the lights die out
|
| And the dust has settled down?
|
| Settle down
|
| Settle down
|
| Settle down
|
| Settle
|
| Down |
