make your mama proud

i can still recall a time you were not so far behind, you were only 15 and you still had piece of mind, now you're pushing 31, duty calls you come and run, when will this be over? when, when will you be gone?, i'll be your man child to be tough, once is never quite enough, giving twenty minutes in between, if you know what i mean, you gotta give if you wanna get, never let 'em see you sweat, you may cry and you may bleed, but only if the punch is from me, why do you back down in the face of a fist fight?, i kick myself for caring about you, you may one day go the distance, you might come around, if you be yourself, well you can make your mama proud, when you get the energy you can place a call to me, my number's in the phone book and i'm not too hard to find, i still live in the same old place, i still got that same old face, i can give you more than twenty minutes of my time, i'll be your man child to be tough, once is never quite enough, giving twenty minutes in between, why do you back down in the face of a fist fight?, i kick myself for caring about you, you may one day go the distance, you might come around, if you be yourself, well you can make your mama proud, if you be yourself, well you can make your mama proud, if you be yourself, well you can make your mama proud
