Lyrics
Hey. Come on. Well now, come on.
I was a boy, maybe 2 or 3, my momma got a real good look at me,
She said “son let me tell you how it’s gonna BE: it’s me against YOU and YOU against me”
[chorus{
Well I’m an angry boy and I’m an angry man.
But I’m tryin to be the best I can
Every day I gotta work things out
For my little girl, she what it’s all about:
Come on.
Well come on.
Come on.
We’ll come on.
I was young maybe 9 or 10 when my momma took a good hard look again, she said, “boy I think you’re up to no GOOD, now go out back so you can fetch me that wood.”
[chorus{
Well I’m an angry boy and I’m an angry man.
But I’m tryin to be the best I can
Every day I gotta work things out
For my little girl, she what it’s all about:
Come on.
Well come on.
Come on.
We’ll come on.
[solo instrumental]
Now I’m grown and nearin fifty five
My little girl’s soul is what keeps me alive.
But I’m Wondering if or why or how or when she’ll ever have to see me angry again.
Though my momma’s buried in the ground, I still have anger that I’m passing down. Every day I fight to calm me down but the demon inside keeps a coming out.
[chorus{
Well I’m an angry boy and I’m an angry man.
But I’m tryin to be the best I can
Come on!
[chorus]
Well I’m an angry boy and I’m an angry man.
But I’m tryin to be the best I can
I gotta work things out
For my little girl, she what it’s all about
Come on.
Well come on.
Come on.
We’ll come on.
Little darlin imma work things out
A come on!
I hope you know I hate to see you cry, it doesn’t matter where when how or why. I promise you by and by I am a better man each day I try.
[chorus]
‘Cause I’m an angry boy and I’m an angry man.
But I’m tryin to be the best I can
Every day imma work it out
For you little girl. You’re what I’m all about.
Come on!
Hey hey
Come on!
Hey eh hey eh
Come on!
