Jonah you're still young, boy
Jonah you're still young
You're gonna be a man when your daddy gets done
You're gonna be a man, boy
You're gonna be a man
You got to beat your children the best that you can
This world gonna knock you down, boy
This world gonna knock you down
Put your navy face flat on the ground
You can get back up and then, boy
You get back up and then
This world gonna knock you right back down again
Jonah you're still young, boy
Jonah you're still young
You're gonna be a man when your daddy gets done
What you need is a sign
In these ever changing times
To give to you a place where you can shine
Your good gal wants to roll, boy
Your good gal wants to roll
She'll leave you walking this world all alone
Walk this far alone, boy
Walk this far alone
You ain't got no reason, you ain't got no home
Jonah you're still young, boy
Jonah you're still young
You're gonna be a man when your daddy gets done
What you need is a sign
In these ever changing times
To give to you a place where you can shine
