First Time Around

People might say that I'm no good

Livin' like I do

Well, I stake my life on my future

Can you say that you feel like I do?

Now, if there's any room for doubting

You better look some more

'Cause I made my mistakes while I know it

I know you've heard it all before

But it's your first time around

Sometimes the runnin' can sure get you down

It's your first time around

Don't get trapped by the life that you found

If you find your life's at a dead end

Sweatin' and breathin' for room

You never crawl before you walk

You gotta take the bad with the good

But it's your first time around

Sometimes the runnin' can sure get you down

It's your first time around (first time around)

Don't get trapped by the life that you found

The life you found

Oh yeah

People might say that I'm no good

Livin' like I do (livin' like you do)

I stake my life on my future

Can you say that you feel like I do?

So if you find your life at a dead end

Sweatin' and breathin' for room

You better crawl before you walk

You gotta take the bad with the good

You should be lookin' for some answers

You think you have them all

I got news for you, brother

Ain't nobody too big to fall

But it's your first time around

Sometimes the runnin' can sure get you down

It's your first time around (first time around)

Don't get trapped by the life that you found

It's your first time, first time around

Sometimes the runnin' can sure get you down

It's your first time around (first time around)

Don't get trapped by the life that you found

It's your first time around
