| Years from now you’ll hear this song and probably laugh
|
| You’ll have learned, and you’ll think you can do better
|
| And Lord knows you probably will
|
| And Lord knows I hope you will
|
| Years from now someone will break your little heart
|
| It’ll sting, but don’t let it callous over
|
| The first cut stings the most
|
| The first cut always stings the most
|
| Years from now, when what they taught you all seems strange
|
| Don’t despair, the stranger it gets the better
|
| It’s the fear that can drag you down
|
| Don’t let your fear come along and drag you down
|
| Years from now, they’ll promise pleasure, pills and wine
|
| Go on try them all, but make sure your mama knows you love her
|
| Lord knows you probably will
|
| Lord knows, I hope you will
|
| I hope you will
|
| Years from now Jesus may keep you up at night
|
| If he’s still around I doubt he really means to scare you
|
| I think he’s misunderstood
|
| Oh, don’t you hate being misunderstood?
|
| I hate being misunderstood
|
| I hate being misunderstood
|
| Years from now you’ll hear this song and probably laugh
|
| You’ll have learned, and you’ll think you can do better
|
| And Lord knows you probably will
|
| And Lord knows, I hope you will |
