Boys Growing Up

Mamas talk to Jesus a lot about boys growing up

And the junkyard's still doing

A lot of business from boys growing up

When the girls become women

They don't waste any time

While we're playing in the dirt

They're just rolling their eyes

They still keep on falling for the boys growing up

The toys get faster

Drinks get stronger

Skin gets thicker

And the shadows get longer

We're still falling down

Learning how to pick ourselves up off the ground

You know a man's gotta be tough

But don't mind us

We're just boys growing up

A lot of broken hearts get blamed on boys growing up

And a lot of diamond rings get bought by boys growing up

A lot of swinging for the fences

A lot of striking out

A lot of break ups

Make ups and coming back arounds

Next thing we know

We're watching our boys growing up

The toys get faster

Drinks get stronger

Skin gets thicker

And the shadows get longer

We're still falling down

Learning how to pick ourselves up off the ground

You know a man's gotta be tough

But don't mind us

We're just boys growing up

Just boys growing up

Mamas talk to Jesus a lot about their boys growing up

And the junkyard's still doing

A lot of business from the boys growing up

The toys get faster

Drinks get stronger

Skin gets thicker

And the shadows get longer

We're still falling down

Learning how to pick ourselves up off the ground

You know a man's gotta be tough

But don't mind us

We're just boys growing up

Just boys growing up
