I've been many places
My footsteps they leave traces
On the concrete floor
As I walk through the door
A path of new beginnings
That's always been the way
My life has been a ride
And that's the way it will stay
We've grown up together through the hard and the good
Not got very much but worked as hard as we could
I've been through the strife
Of love and of life
I sleep all day and wake up at night
It's easy to speak words but are you up for the fight
My mind it drifts into the clouds
Just to try and make my people proud
I've been there for folk but it's never enough
Pickin' them up when they've run out of puff
But when I need a shoulder to cry
They just go by and there's nowhere to hide
We've grown up together through the hard and the good
Not got very much but worked as hard as we could
I've been through the strife
Of love and of life
Grown up together through the hard and the good
Not got very much but worked as hard as we could
I've been through the strife
Of love and of life
