Growing up and growing older Don't always go hand in hand And it's not the weight on your shoulders That makes you a man Is this world we know spinning out of control Or is it just me I went to church when I was younger And they taught me to believe Now I can't help but wonder What's been happening to me Has God lost all faith in the human race Or is it just me Swing low, oh swing low Swing low, swing low for me tonight I started drinking much too early And it led me astray It doesn't matter if I was thirteen Or it was ten o'clock today It's just the same old song Man is there something wrong Or is it just me Now I'm not drinking to ward off demons, No, I've learned to live with them And I've learned to live with questions, But there's one thing I can't stand And in the back of my mind I'm afraid I'll find It's just me Swing low, oh swing low Swing low, oh swing low Swing low, swing low for me tonight You know I've been puttin' myself on trial And I guess that if I'm convicted It'll only prove that the deepest wounds Are the ones that are self-inflicted And God, what am I supposed to do Nothing seems to make any sense You know, I think I have faith in You I just need a little more evidence Swing low, oh swing low Swing low, oh swing low Swing low, swing low for me tonight
