There isn't a word for what's happening Things all come in at once And the sky opened up and swallowed the world hole Till it's tired and heavy and full And i'm not who i thought i would be Who i thought I'd become I get up for my work in the morning air and Say goodbye to the night when the sun Oh my family do love me I've tested them well over time I'm in no ways a saint my bed isn't made And life is as hard as a cry Now my sister is on the phone with me, long distance Telling me i might be the youngest but i'm not an old at young And i'm amable and i should know That i should take care if i do go That i'm not the little boy i was Life don't go by faster if you run But still that train's gonna come
What in the word are you doing Counting all your fingers and thumbs Papa left here yesterday morning You can wait but he's not gonnna come And as land is a drizzle upon playground I'm not sure which side to be on I've lost enough along the way But it's made me the man i've become Now my sister is on the phone with me, long distance Telling me i might be the youngest but i'm not an old at young And i'm amable and i should know That i should take care if i do go That i'm not a little boy i was Life don't go by faster if you run But still that train's gonna come What in the world are you doing Counting all your fingers and thumbs Papa left here yesterday morning You can wait but he's not gonna come
