Wake up, son of mine Momma got something to tell you Changes come Life will have its way With your pride, son Take it like a man Hang on, son of mine A 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 (changes come) Keep your dignity (keep your dignity) Take the high road (take the high road) Take it like a man (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
