Someday Never Comes

Well, I'm here to tell you now each and every mother's son
'Cause 'Someday' never comes
When Daddy went away, he said, "Try to be a man
Well, I'm here to tell you now each and every mother's son

And I still see him standing, tryin' to be a man

You better learn it fast, you better learn it young
You better learn it fast, you better learn it young
And someday you'll understand"
You better learn it fast, you better learn it young
For there were many things I didn't know
For there were many things I didn't know
A son was born to me, Mama held his hand
'Cause 'Someday' never comes
Sayin', "Someday you'll understand"
'Cause 'Someday' never comes

Sayin', "Someday you'll understand"
For there were many things I didn't know
And Daddy always smiled, took me by the hand

And then one day in April, I wasn't even there
'Cause 'Someday' never comes
Well, I'm here to tell you now each and every mother's son
Ooh 'Someday' never comes
Well, I'm here to tell you now each and every mother's son
Well, time and tears went by and I collected dust
You better learn it fast, you better learn it young
Think it was September, the year I went away
I said, "Someday you'll understand"
