Lyrics
He learned to ride his bike when he was only five
Sat on his daddy's lap thinking he could drive
Thought he was in love when he was just fourteen
Found out real fast that love could be a hurtful thing
Chorus
Daddy said boy you got to suck up those tears
Your gonna fail but your love can take years
Just pick yourself back up you have to try again
That's when you go from being a boy to being a man
Instrumental
He thought he was grown up when he got his first car
Never thought that going to work would be this hard
But his dad knew it Takes two feet to stand
Two hands and a heart
When you go from being a boy to being a man
Daddy said now boy you got to suck up those tears
Your gonna fail but your love can take years
Just pick yourself back up love you have to try again
That's when you go from being a boy to being a man
That's how you go from being a boy to being a man ewwwwwwwww
That's how you go from a being a boy to being a man
