First thing
I remember was askin' papa, "Why?",
For there were many things
I didn't know.
And Daddy always smiled; took me by the hand,
Sayin', "Someday you'll understand." [CHORUS:]
Well, I'm here to tell you now each and ev'ry mother's son
You better learn it fast; you better learn it young, '
Cause, "Someday"
Never Comes." Well, time and tears went by and I collected dust, For there were many things I didn't know. When Daddy went away, he said, "
Try to be a man,
And, Someday you'll understand." [CHORUS] And then, one day in April, I wasn't even there, For there were many things I didn't know. A son was born to me; Mama held his hand, Sayin' "
Someday you'll understand." [CHORUS] Think it was September, the year I went away, For there were many things I didn't know. And I still see him standing, try'n' to be a man; I said, "
Someday you'll understand." [CHORUS]
