Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tell them in the city
Tell them near and far
This generation coming up
Are gonna be proud of who they are, hey yeah
So you got to lend an ear
Hear what they gotta say
Maybe you can understand
Your way is not the only way
[Verse 2]
'Cause this generation
Is gonna walk with their heads held high
Yeah, this generation
Is gonna bring tears to the old man's eye
[Verse 3]
Mama said, just be proud
And hold your head up high
'Cause what you got's a precious thing
Money just can't buy, no way, no no
So you can tell your father
You can tell your ma
There's a new age coming into town
A new future might not be far
[Verse 4]
'Cause this generation, yeah
Is gonna walk with their heads held high
Oh, this generation
Is gonna bring tears to the old man's eye
[Verse 5]
A woo hoo, a woo hoo
Talking 'bout this generation
A woo hoo, a woo hoo
Talking 'bout this generation
[Verse 6]
So you can tell your father
And you can tell your mom
There's a new age coming into town
The new future might not be far
[Verse 7]
'Cause this generation
Is gonna walk with their heads held high
I know this generation
Is gonna bring tears to the old man's eye
[Verse 8]
'Cause this generation, yeah
Is gonna walk with their heads held high
Oh, this generation
Is gonna bring tears to the old man's eye
[Verse 9]
A woo hoo, a woo hoo
Talking 'bout this generation
A woo hoo, a woo hoo
Talking 'bout this generation
[Verse 10]
Can't you see that I
A woo hoo, a woo hoo
Oh I, talking 'bout this generation
[Verse 11]
Can't you see that I
A woo hoo, a woo hoo
Oh I, this generation
Can't you see I'm talking 'bout
