when he was a boy
he used to sit in the cl-ssroom
used to wonder what it would be like
to go outside and play

yeah –

mama always told him
“boy, you gotta think twice –
gotta work harder and sacrifice
your desires.”

yeah –

(refrain)
but then he was a young man
went out into the world
it’s never what he expected
isn’t that the way the story goes?

yeah –

teachers always told him
“boy, you gotta study hard –
gotta learn the trivia
to help you along your way.”

yeah –

when he grew up and he
got a steady job, well
the lesson that he learned
is that it really doesn’t matter
anyway

yeah –

(refrain)
then he started to question
all the things he was told
put in such a position
isn’t that the way the story goes?
isn’t that the way the story goes?

(instrumental)

as he grew older
and thought about his life –
people always offering to
give a little piece of advice

when he was a boy
he used to sit in the cl-ssroom
used to wonder what it would be like
to go outside and play

yeah –

(refrain)
then he was an old man
while once he was a boy
it’s never what he expected
isn’t that the way the story goes?
yeah –
isn’t that the way the story goes?
yeah –
isn’t that the way the story goes?
yeah –
