Growing Up lyrics

Ma cried like a lady
Pa cried like a man
1963, one less Kennedy
And I was too young to understand
And the years flew by in colors
Each one a little faster than before
And as the war caused some to cry
I'd identify my tv keeping score

Growing up in the shadow of the USA
Trying to find the meaning of life today
America, it's a heavy kind of role you
Play, you're the hero, you're the villain
Your every move is on display

Ma cried like a lady
Pa cried like a man
1963, one less Kennedy
And i was too young to understand
We were all too young to understand
