CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL - SOMEDAY NEVER COMES lyrics

rate me

First thing I remember was askin' papa, "Why?",

For there were many things I didn't know.

And Daddy always smiled; took me by the hand,

Sayin', "Someday you'll understand."

CHORUS:

Well, I'm here to tell you now each and ev'ry mother's son

You better learn it fast; you better learn it young,

'Cause, "Someday" Never Comes."

Well, time and tears went by and I collected dust,

For there were many things I didn't know.

When Daddy went away, he said, "Try to be a man,

And, Someday you'll understand."

CHORUS

And then, one day in April, I wasn't even there,

For there were many things I didn't know.

A son was born to me; Mama held his hand,

Sayin' "Someday you'll understand."

CHORUS

Think it was September, the year I went away,

For there were many things I didn't know.

And I still see him standing, try'n' to be a man;

I said, "Someday you'll understand."

CHORUS

Mmmm-mmmm-mmmm....
