Lyrics:

They say you never come home, boy you been drivin' too fast When you gonna shape up, how long is this gonna last You may be laughin' today, but listen to some good advice An' take a look at tomorrow in a workin' man's weary eyes You gotta pick a career, go for the gold Smile for the camera, do what you're told Well you can take away the ladder 'cos I ain't gonna climb it If there's a stairway to heaven I swear I'm gonna find it Well there are winners and outlaws and leaders and lovers Behind every man in the news And one thing I know is behind everyone there's a boy who had nothin' to lose Behind every man who has somethin' to say There's a boy who had nothin' to prove An' every hero was once, every villain was once just a boy with a bad attitude Every hero was once, every villain was once just a boy with a bad attitude She says you never call, how come you're actin' so tough You either hold me too tight, or you don't hold me enough Don't be afraid of me angel, I ain't about to clip your wings Just put your feet on the ground and your arms around the real thing You gotta love me for keeps, feather the nest Plan for the future, an' gimme your best Boy we're never gonna have a normal family life Steamin' up and down the speedway on the back a' your bike Well there are winners and outlaws and leaders and lovers Behind every man in the news And one thing I know is behind everyone there's a boy who had nothin' to lose Behind every man who has somethin' to say There's a boy who had nothin' to prove-aca
