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. 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...
