Somebody told me a long time ago
Don't leave your feet get caught out in the cold driving snow
Don't let them tell you, son, that you're a fool
Just 'cause you didn't learn it all, learn it all in school
Somebody told me yesterday
Don't let those dreams fade away
Don't let them tell you, son, that you're a fool
Just 'cause you didn't learn it all, learn it all in school
When you're walking down the wrong road again
Walking down the wrong road again
One man's mother, she's standing at the altar
One man's brother, he's drinking down his holy water
Mother, don't you cry
Don't you cry on this golden night
If you may or if you might
Somebody's gonna cry
When you're walking down the wrong road again
Walking down the wrong road again
And she cried all night long
Didn't make it right or make it wrong
Somebody's gonna fly
Somebody's gonna cry
One man stands behind a fence
Another man stands behind a tree
One man sits behind his golden desk
Pushing his thoughts over on me
Over on me...
Mother, don't you cry
Don't you cry on this golden night
If you may or if you might
Somebody's gonna cry
When you're walking down that wrong road again
Walking down that wrong road again
Walking down the wrong road again
Walking down the wrong road
