Lyrics

0:18I was born right by the mountain
0:22From a place where eagles would sore
0:25Now I'm saying goodbye to my hometown
0:29I'm going where I never been before
0:33See my daddy was a farmer
0:36and mama see was a nurse
0:40Told me stories about the world
0:43I'm about to find what it's worth
0:47Mama don't you cry
0:54daddy please just say goodbye
1:00Cause, I've gotta live before I die
1:07but I'll be coming back home soon
1:12(But I'll be coming back home soon)
1:15Now I'm standing by the streetlights
1:19not sure if I really belong
1:22Though my trouble days may come
1:26I know I gotta go on
1:30I've gotta live my life in colors
1:33no more living in black and white
1:37I've gotta learn to live my life
1:40I've gotta learn to stand and fight
1:45Sister don't you cry
1:51brother I will be alright
1:58Cause I've gotta live before I die
2:03but I'll be coming back home soon
2:08(But I'll be coming back home soon)
2:13So many years past and I've been waiting for so long
2:18to see my papa
2:21I can't wait to see his eyes
2:26So many years past and I've been dreaming for so long
2:32to see my mama
2:36I can't wait to see her smile
2:40Because I've lived before I die
2:46and I come back home to you
I was born right by the mountain
From a place where eagles would sore
Now I'm saying goodbye to my hometown
I'm going where I never been before
See my daddy was a farmer
and mama see was a nurse
Told me stories about the world
I'm about to find what it's worth
Mama don't you cry
daddy please just say goodbye
Cause, I've gotta live before I die
but I'll be coming back home soon
(But I'll be coming back home soon)
Now I'm standing by the streetlights
not sure if I really belong
Though my trouble days may come
I know I gotta go on
I've gotta live my life in colors
no more living in black and white
I've gotta learn to live my life
I've gotta learn to stand and fight
Sister don't you cry
brother I will be alright
Cause I've gotta live before I die
but I'll be coming back home soon
(But I'll be coming back home soon)
So many years past and I've been waiting for so long
to see my papa
I can't wait to see his eyes
So many years past and I've been dreaming for so long
to see my mama
I can't wait to see her smile
Because I've lived before I die
and I come back home to you
