Had To Grow Up

Another day late for the bus again A single mom just trying to make ends meet Go to work, be on time, get out of the grocery line Before the kids get home Everybody's in a hurry Totally stressed out and worried If only she could turn back time to when She remembers being 13 Sleeping in till 11:30 Dressing up in her mamma's jewellery But she had to grow up, yeah we gotta grow up Summer seemed to last forever Parents always stayed together Nothing matters, yeah whatever But she had to grow up, yeah we gotta grow up Sometime A grey haired man in a pinstripe suit His last report long overdue He pulled up to his parking spot, found someone took his job Now what's he gonna' do? Everybody's in a hurry Totally stressed out and worried If only he could turn back time to when He remembers being 16 Quarterback of the old football team Almost married the high school prom queen But he had to grow up, yeah we gotta grow up Learned to drive on all the side streets Bent the rules like they meant nothing Stayed out late till the early morning But he had to grow up, yeah we gotta grow up Sometime [x4] Maybe I am only 14 Maybe someday I'll be prom queen Drive myself to where I should be But that's when I grow up, yeah that's when I grow up But for now I'll drive my mamma crazy Spin around till I get dizzy Sleeping in till 11:30 But I'll have to grow up, yeah I gotta grow up sometime
