When I was a little boy
They would say to me
Don't go in the world and play
That's bad company
All they had was child and faith
Let him grow and let him wait
to find out what it was to be free
Now I'm over twenty one
Growing up I've had my fun
And I know the way it's got to be
Baby lying in a womb
Are you free or in a tomb
Let me in, I feel I want to cry
Oh the road is there
Oh that road is there
Come on back, come on back
Wash your hands and up to bed
Mind your manners or you're dead
Mind the cars 'cos you've got school on Monday
Put my trust in God
Who is he I know not what
Something mummy said to me one Sunday
Maybe love is life but life is not
Something I need plenty of
Oh I wish I'd died and never lived a day
Now there's no one near me now
Tell me what to do and how
Take me, let me sing my cares away
Oh that road is there, oh that road is there
Come on back, come on back
