Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He was born years ago with fire in his eyes
He learned to sing before he even learned to cry
He looked hard in the mirror with a record in hand
Dreams too big for this town
[Verse 2]
His mama said, "Now, listen to what you love, baby
Don't care about the ones who just stand there and hate ya
So take your time, it's a long hard road ahead now
I know you'll be alright"
[Verse 3]
It's about this boy who left home early
To fill these shoes, to be a man someday
He took on this world knowin' deep down inside
He's here to stay, it's about this boy
It's about this boy
[Verse 4]
He grew up, went to school, went to college, made a band
He got a job pouring beer for the working man
He saved some money for guitar that he wanted for so long
So, so long
[Verse 5]
He found a girl, fell in love with her mood swings
So one night out, once they made out down by the porch swing
These days go fast, his hair's grown a little long since then
Oh, and his three pals by his side
[Verse 6]
It's about this boy who left home early
To fill these shoes, to be a man someday
He took on this world knowin' deep down inside
He'd be back one day
[Verse 7]
It's about this boy with one thing on his mind
Guitar on his back, some lyrics on his hand
He found his voice and he whispered inside
He's here to stay, yeah, it's about this boy
[Verse 8]
And now that boy looks back in the mirror
The same old shoes but stronger inside
He took on a world, or at least he tried
But now that boy is ready and willin'
He tears out his heart every song that he sings
He kicked down the door, he'll come back for more
And he's here to stay
[Verse 9]
It's about this boy who left home early
To fill these shoes, to be a man someday
He took on this world knowin' deep down inside
He'd be back one day
[Verse 10]
It's about this boy with one thing on his mind
Guitar on his back, some lyrics on his hand
He found his voice and he whispered inside
He's here to stay, it's about this boy
[Verse 11]
About this boy
It's about this boy
About this boy
Ooh, yeah
Ooh
It's always been about this boy
Yeah
You know what the song's about, right?
