His own way lyrics

His own way lyrics
Writer Ken Lillie


v1
I was packing up my Harley
He came walking down the stairs.
Said son where you think your going.
I said daddy I just don’t care.
Maybe I’ll join the Army,
Its time to head out on my own
He just stood the smiling.
Said son theres one thing that I know.
chorus
A mans gotta find his own way
No matter what the cost,
Knowing where your going,
Means sometime getting lost.
Just when you think you got it.
You’ll lose it once again.
Then the day you find yourself,
You’ll wonder where you’ve been.
v2
So i made my own path,
So sure where I’d go,
Too many times the hi-way,
Turned into a dirt road,
And love turned into heartache
Too many times it seems,
The drugs and the booze didn’t kill me.
But it brought me to my knee’s.
chorus
A mans gotta find his own way.
No matter what the cost.
Knowing where your going
Means sometimes getting lost.
Just when you think you got it,
You’ll lose it once again,
Then the day you find yourself,
You’ll wonder where you’ve been.
v3
Now I’m standing on my own stairs,
Watching my boy pack,
Heading out to find himself,
Says he ain’t coming back.
I just stand there smiling,
Like my daddy did.
Repeating what my daddy said,
When i was just a kid.
chorus
A mans gotta find his own way
No matter what the cost,
Knowing where your going,
Means sometime getting lost.
Just when you think you got it.
You’ll lose it once again.
Then the day you find yourself,
You’ll wonder where you’ve been.
