If I don't change my ways, I'm in all kinds of trouble when I get home I'm constantly amazed by my own stubborn lack of self control To my father's house I have to walk this road Though the streets are wild ruthless I will go To my father's house, my fa, my father's house I roam I'll roam I'm watching myself grow, I'm finding strength in seeking the unknown And I will shine my light when the road seems rough and overgrown, overgrown To my father's house I have to walk this road Though the streets are cold and lawless I will go To my father's house, my fa, my father's house I roam I'll roam But all's not lost, you know. All's not lost you know I keep on moving, moving ahead Forget the ways you fall. Forget the times you fade Look at how you've changed and stayed. So pick up your bags and carry on, carry on To my father's house I have to walk this road Though my enemy surrounds me I will go To my father's house, my fa, my father's house I roam I'll roam If I don't change my ways I'm in all kinds of trouble when I get home
