wake up son of mine

momma got somethin' to tell you



changes come

life will have its way

with your pride, son

take it like a man



hang on son of mine

the storm is blowing up your horizon



changes come

keep your dignity

take the high road

take it like a man



listen up son of mine

momma got something to tell you

all about growing pains

life will pound away

where the light don't shine, son

take it like a man



suck it up son of mine

thunder blowing up your horizon



changes come

keep your dignity

take the high road

take it like a man



momma said like the rain

(this too shall pass)

like a kidney stone

(this too shall pass)

it's just a broken heart, son

this pain will pass away
