Lyrics Better Days (Theme from "Man and Boy") - J.J. Johnson, Bill Withers

Better Days (Theme from "Man and Boy")

Tomorrows must be better days
And rocky fields must turn to meadow
But there are prices men must pay
To make a world where boys can grow
Idle thoughts of horses
Running in their dreams
Questions you can’t answer, like
«What does stud mean?»
Hey, life is just a road you got to travel
Time is all you really got to lose
Ah, and if you get some luck as things unravel
Hey, you might have a dream or two come true
That old rocky road you’ve got to travel
All depends on how you pay your dues
Ah, you can turn them rocks into just gravl
