Lyrics
(Chuck Cannon)
Daddy told me when I was young
He said, It's a long road you've begun
Sometimes it's easy sometimes it's hard
But as you walk the road remember who you are.
You've gotta roll with the punches
You've gotta aim to hit the mark
You've gotta follow your hunches
And try to finish what you start.
And when you come to the crossroads
And you're decidin' in the dark
You've gotta listen to
The whisper of your heart.
He said make it
A practice to be true
'Cause when push comes down
To shove it's up to you.
To keep believing
In your dreams
and to sing your song
if you've got a song to sing.
You've gotta roll with the punches
You've gotta aim to hit the mark
You've gotta follow your hunches
And try to finish what you start.
--- Instrumental ---
The years have come
The years have gone
Yes and I have learned
Some lessons on my own.
I found the winds of fortune
Are sure to change
But the wisdom in these words
Will stay the same.
You've gotta roll with the punches
You've gotta aim to hit the mark
You've gotta follow your hunches
And try to finish what you start.
You've gotta listen to
The whisper of your heart...
