First thing I remember was askin’ papa, why? ,
For there were many things I didn’t know.
And daddy always smiled; took me by the hand,
Sayin’, someday you’ll understand.
Chorus:
Well, I’m here to tell you now each and ev’ry mother’s son
You better learn it fast; you better learn it young,
’cause, someday never comes.
Well, time and tears went by and I collected dust,
For there were many things I didn’t know.
When daddy went away, he said, try to be a man,
And, someday you’ll understand.
Chorus
And then, one day in april, I wasn’t even there,
For there were many things I didn’t know.
A son was born to me; mama held his hand,
Sayin’ someday you’ll understand.
Chorus
Think it was september, the year I went away,
For there were many things I didn’t know.
And I still see him standing, try’n’ to be a man;
I said, someday you’ll understand.
Chorus
Mmmm-mmmm-mmmm....
