Lyrics
Mama, will I ever grow accustomed to the aching?
Will I ever be a real boy? Or will I forever be faking?
It's a dollar that I'm earning, but a living I ain't making
Mama, will I ever grow accustomed to the aching?
Mama, why does my heart break more than my schoolmates?
Why did loving hurt so bad that I had to learn to hate?
And why does every lesson seem to come too late?
Mama, why does my heart break more than my schoolmates?
Mama, where'd you put the manual for all this weary flesh?
Why does youth promise the world? And why does age deliver less?
How is it I'm afflicted at the same time I am blessed?
Mama, where'd you put the manual for all this weary flesh?
