Lucinda Jones workin' at the IHOP: Ten years worth of bacon, eggs an' tears
She's waited on every creed an' color, While waitin' on this day to get here
Graveyard shifts, two bit tips, Makin' every quarter count, Was worth it all to see her son, In that cap an' gown
There are times in life when you gotta crawl, Lose your grip, trip an' fall When you can't lean on no-one else: That's when you find yourself I've been around and I've noticed that Walkin's easy when the road is flat Them danged ol' hills'll get you every time Yeah the good Lord gave us mountains, So we could learn how to climb
Private Bobby Dunn came back from the war Lost his leg but they couldn't take his will
Hell bent to run in that local marathon He trained through the endless pain an' pills
It hurt so bad that sometimes He just had to cry He didn't stop until he crossed That finish line
There are times in life when you gotta crawl Lose your grip trip an' fall When you can't lean on no one else That's when you find yourself I've been around and I've noticed that Walkin's easy when the road is flat Them danged ol' hills'll get you every time Yeah the good Lord gave us mountains So we could learn how to climb
This world ain't fair It can knock you on your butt You can just lie there Or you can get back up You gotta get back up
There are times in life when you gotta crawl Lose your grip, trip an' fall When you can't lean on no one else That's when you find yourself I've been around and I've noticed that Walkin's easy when the road is flat Them danged ol' hills'll get you every time Yeah, the good Lord gave us mountains The good Lord gave us mountains So we could learn how to climb
Yeah, oh
