when i was just a child i used to run
and hide so frightened
of those lonely shadows
my momma walked with me
and papa talked with me
now listen son it doesn`t matter
you`ve got to live your life
the way you sow your seeds
and if you do it wrong
you`ve got to face it on your knees
`cause you`re a big boy now
you`re a big boy now you`re a big boy
now so let the big boy shout
i`m a big boy now i`m a big boy
now i`m a big boy now
so let the big boy shout
well time has passed me by
and i`m no longer crying
i chase away those lonely shadows
my momma walked with me and
papa talked with me now
listen son it doesn`t matter
well now i can`t break free no one
can rescue me surrounded
by those lonely shadows
my momma walked with me and
papa talked with me
`cause what i do now doesn`t matter
i`ve had to live my life the way
i sowed my seeds
and now i`ve done it wrong
i`ve got to face it on my knees
`cause i`m a big boy now i`m a big boy
now i`m a big boy
now so let the big boy shout
i`m a big boy now i`m a big boy
now i`m a big boy
now so let the big boy shout
