lyrics

Seventeen and tender, thinkin what am I gunna do?
My mother sat me down and told me boy it's up to you
Go do what you like, you won't be happy otherwise
I knew it when she told me I could see it in her eyes

Could blame the world, blame anybody, for when I stumble or fall
If im not making my own mistakes it aint no life of mine

I wanna know what makes a man
Is it the clothes on his back?
Or the calluses on his hands?

Some of my friends tell me, "Youre stuck on a straight away road"
Just take the next exit man!
Well I pray for the day I told you so
Well I told you soooooooo

Could blame the world, blame anybody, for when I stumble or fall
If im not making my own mistakes it aint no life of mine

I wanna know what makes a man
Is it the clothes on his back?
Or the calluses on his hands?
