Lyrics:
[Verse 1] So I tried a new direction A new mindset A new state But running's what it is Its hard when you're kid To find your place [Verse 2] I know a gang of clever fellows We built a fort out in the woods We cuss and spit at all the girls Ain't got a care in all the world Yeah the living is good [Verse 3] But now I'm supposed to grow Big and tall Seems like I don't get to wear my bare feet At all But when the storm is through My feet know what to do All roads lead to you [Verse 4] I think I've grown a little thinner With out you riding my coat tails I would trade it all again for a nice Stroll in your skin Just to cure what ails And I can see a palm tree from my chair So I don't really feel like going anywhere But even if I do, it's really of no use 'Cause all roads lead to you [Verse 5] If I always try to please her I’m never getting any sleep Love seems easier when it comes But the coming’s just the first part Of having to leave [Verse 6] So maybe I’ll die a happy minstrel Or just a shadow of my former self I’d undo what I have done But lamenting’s much more fun Guilt is bad for your health [Verse 7] But now I’m supposed to grow Big and tall Seems like I don’t get to wear my bare feet at all But when the day is through There’s nothing left to do Baby, all roads lead to you Yeah baby when my life is through I know just what to do Because all roads lead to you
