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
