Boys Growing Up

Mamas talk to Jesus a lot about boys growing up And the junkyard's still doing A lot of business from boys growing up When the girls become women They don't waste any time While we're playing in the dirt They're just rolling their eyes They still keep on falling for the boys growing up The toys get faster Drinks get stronger Skin gets thicker And the shadows get longer We're still falling down Learning how to pick ourselves up off the ground You know a man's gotta be tough But don't mind us We're just boys growing up A lot of broken hearts get blamed on boys growing up And a lot of diamond rings get bought by boys growing up A lot of swinging for the fences A lot of striking out A lot of break ups Make ups and coming back arounds Next thing we know We're watching our boys growing up The toys get faster Drinks get stronger Skin gets thicker And the shadows get longer We're still falling down Learning how to pick ourselves up off the ground You know a man's gotta be tough But don't mind us We're just boys growing up Just boys growing up Mamas talk to Jesus a lot about their boys growing up And the junkyard's still doing A lot of business from the boys growing up The toys get faster Drinks get stronger Skin gets thicker And the shadows get longer We're still falling down Learning how to pick ourselves up off the ground You know a man's gotta be tough But don't mind us We're just boys growing up Just boys growing up
