Growin' up and I'm Fine ft. The Italian Connection Lyrics

I never had love like the other boys did

I never had the love that I wanted to give

I never had the good things that other boys had

I guess that's what made me bad

I always got caught in the middle of a fight

I always got caught stealin' things in the night

I always got chased by the squad car lights

I guess you can say I'm not right

It's true, I never had love

But I always had a dream

But it was just a dream

I wasn't taught my rights from my wrongs

Maybe I'll learn them from a song

Growin' up and I'm fine

I never had a mother that only love could bring

I never had a father who could teach me things

I never had a brother or a sister too

I guess I don't need you

I always had a dog to pat on the head

I always had an alley to make for a bed

I always had my jeans and my studded vest

I guess that's what I like best

It's true, I never had love

But I always had a dream

But it was just a dream

I wasn't taught my rights from my wrongs

Maybe I'll learn them from a song

Growin' up and I'm fine

I never had love like the other boys did

I never had the love that I wanted to give

I never had the good things that other boys had

I guess that's what made me bad
