Settle Down |
Norma it ain’t no use |
Your little boy is outta control |
He’s got a burning fuse |
He’s got a broken circuit |
Started out way back when |
You took him to his first rodeo |
Those little eyes lit up |
That little heart was sealed in stone |
Mother just let him go |
You can’t stop the rain from falling |
He’s gonna ride that colt |
And one of them’s gonna end up broken |
Lordy what a price to pay |
All that work for all that trouble |
Before you accept your fate |
Love the man or walk away |
Oh yeah-yeah |
Whatcha gonna be when you grow up? |
Where you gonna be when the sun goes down? |
Will you ever quit when you’ve had enough? |
Oh, oh, oh, oh |
How in the world will you find your way |
When the lovin' is good |
But the lovin' won’t pay? |
Where you gonna go when the lights die out |
And the dust has settled down? |
Settle down |
Papa couldn’t understand |
Why he had to leave the station |
Taught him how to work the land |
«Boy your dreams ain’t worth the chasin» |
And up until the day he died |
The bridle could not ease his sorrow |
Cursed his passion and cursed his pride |
These are the final words he cried |
Oh |
Whatcha gonna be when you grow up? |
Where you gonna be when the sun goes down? |
Will you ever quit when you’ve had enough? |
Oh, oh, oh, oh |
How in the world will you find your way |
When the lovin' is good |
But the lovin' won’t pay? |
Where you gonna go when the lights die out |
And the dust has settled down? |
Settle down |
Oh, oh |
I said whatcha gonna be when you grow up? |
Where you gonna be when the sun goes down? |
Will you ever quit when you’ve had enough? |
Oh, oh, oh, oh |
How in the world will you find your way |
When the lovin' is good |
But the lovin' won’t pay? |
Where you gonna go when the lights die out |
And the dust has settled down? |
Settle down |
Whatcha gonna be when you grow up? |
Where you gonna be when the sun goes down? |
Will you ever quit when you’ve had enough? |
Oh, oh, oh, oh |
How in the world will you find your way |
When the lovin' is good |
But the lovin' won’t pay? |
Where you gonna go when the lights die out |
And the dust has settled down? |
Settle down |
Settle down |
Settle down |
Settle |
Down |
