Jonah you're still young, boy

Jonah you're still young

You're gonna be a man when your daddy gets done

You're gonna be a man, boy

You're gonna be a man

You got to beat your children the best that you can

This world gonna knock you down, boy

This world gonna knock you down

Put your navy face flat on the ground

You can get back up and then, boy

You get back up and then

This world gonna knock you right back down again

Jonah you're still young, boy

Jonah you're still young

You're gonna be a man when your daddy gets done

What you need is a sign

In these ever changing times

To give to you a place where you can shine

Your good gal wants to roll, boy

Your good gal wants to roll

She'll leave you walking this world all alone

Walk this far alone, boy

Walk this far alone

You ain't got no reason, you ain't got no home

Jonah you're still young, boy

Jonah you're still young

You're gonna be a man when your daddy gets done

What you need is a sign

In these ever changing times

To give to you a place where you can shine
