Lyrics

Step out in the night
 When you get lonely
 Listen to the words
 That your ears don't hear
 I know your cross is gettin' heavier
 With every step, yes it is
 'Cause I know a woman
 Who'd walk miles for you
 I said stop
 Stay where you are
 Take a look at yourself
 Take a good look at yourself
 Do you turn to momma?
 She don't understand that other stuff
 Since you're part of the cross she's carrying
 Your ass has been dragged long enough
 ♪
 Light flash for me is very morning
 Day time, night time
 You still don't see
 Why must you wait until morning?
 To wake up and be
 Wake up and be
 To wake up and be
 Wake up and be
 Wake up and be
 I know there's no such thing as up and down
 With your problems you've got to goin' 'round and 'round
 Can't turn to momma
 'Cause she'll only tell you
 She told you so
 Since you're part of cross she's carryin'
 You oughta know, now
 ♪
 Hey, alright
 Happy now, hey now
 Hey now, hey now
 Hey pa
 ♪
 Light flash for me is morning
 Day time, night time
 We still don't see
 Why must we wait until morning?
 To wake up and be
 Wake up and be
 Wake up and be
 Wake up and be
 Wake up and be
 There's no such thing as up and down
 When your problems got to goin' around
 'Round, 'round, 'round
 Can't turn to your daddy
 He don't understand that other stuff
 Since you're part of the cross he's been carryin'
 Your ass has been draggin him long enough, hey
 Alright, that's better
