Settle Down - The McClymonts
Norma it ain't no use
Your little boy is outta control
He's got a burning fuse
He's got a broken circuit
Started out way back when
You took him to his first rodeo
Those little eyes lit up
That little heart was sealed in stone
Mother just let him go
You can't stop the rain from falling
He's gonna ride that colt
And one of them's gonna end up broke
And honey what a price to pay
All that work for all that trouble
Before you accept your fate
Love the man or walk away
Oh yeah-yeah
Whatcha gonna be
When you grow up
Where you gonna be
When the sun goes down
Will you ever quit
When you've had enough
Oh oh oh oh
How in the world
Will you find your way
When the lovin' is good
But the lovin' won't pay
Where you gonna go
When the lights die out
And the dust has settled down
Settle down
Papa couldn't understand
Why he had to leave the station
Taught him how to work the land
"Boy your dreams ain't worth the chasin"
And up until the day he died
The bible could not ease his sorrow
Cursed his passion
And cursed his pride
These are the final words he cried
Oh
Whatcha gonna be
When you grow up
How you gonna be
When the sun goes down
Will you ever quit
When you've had enough
Oh oh oh oh
How in the world
Will you find your way
When the lovin' is good
But the lovin' won't pay
Where you gonna go
When the lights die out
And the dust has settled down
Settle down
Oh oh
I said whatcha gonna be
When you grow up
How you gonna be
When the sun goes down
Will you ever quit
When you've had enough
Oh oh oh oh
How in the world
Will you find your way
When the lovin' is good
But the lovin' won't pay
Where you gonna go
When the lights die out
And the dust has settled
Whatcha gonna be
When you grow up
How you gonna be
When the sun goes down
Will you ever quit
When you've had enough
Oh oh oh oh
How in the world
Will you find your way
When the lovin' is good
But the lovin' won't pay
Where you gonna go
When the lights die out
And the dust has settled down
Settle down
Settle down
Settle down
Settle
Down
