Downside Of Growing Up

Pack your bags and hug your mom

Been dreaming about leaving for so long

You start to cry as you crank the truck

Yeah, that's the downside of growing up

Fixin' up your brand new place

First day in and something breaks

Your dad ain't there to get you unstuck

Yeah, that's the downside of growing up

That's alright, that's okay

It's just the way you find your way

It's the road you gotta take to get where you're going

You're gonna twist, you're gonna turn

But it's how you're gonna learn

A lot about life, a lot about love

On the downside of growing up

It starts out as a simple date

Before too long, he's your everything

'Til he leaves you standing in a cloud of dust

Yeah, that's the downside of growing up

That's alright, that's okay

It's just the way you find your way

It's the road you gotta take to get where you're going

You're gonna twist, you're gonna turn

But it's how you're gonna learn

A lot about life, a lot about love

On the downside of growing up

I know what you're feeling

Yeah, I understand

'Cause where you are is where I've been

And where I still am

And I'm alright, I'm okay

Yeah, I know I'll find my way

On the road I gotta take to get where I'm going

I'm gonna twist, I'm gonna turn

But it's how you're gonna turn

A lot about life, a lot about love

On the downside of growing up

A lot about life, a lot about love

On the downside of growing up
