When I was 10 years old, my parents were poor Our house was so cold And I was still in school and learning And then I never really got too far And ev'ryone we knew had money And driving a car, and driving a car Now I'm twenty-one The street where I lived is blown up and gone And I've had a good day crying And the world around has changed alot I never really gave much more Much more then I got, much more then I got
