As You Make Your Way

Marc Douglas Berardo

As you make your way

here's what you need to know

so that when you see the signs

you will know which way to go



you are gonna have to navigate

a lot of crooked highways

a lot of turns you'll have to take alone

before that road leads you home



people in this world are gonna judge you

but don't assume that makes you wrong

just don't let anyone control you

don't let them change the way you sing your song



you see, your mama's always talking

about keeping you away from the bad

i know you're gonna have to get your little heart broken

before you realize the love you had



so work hard,

hard work is good

hard work will reap for you just what it should

as he who gives his sweat and blood

avoids getting swept away in the flood



but don't be afriad to take a moment

to fill up your cup

have a litle fun out there as your going

don't be afraid to live it up



if you need a friend, you just call me

do not hesitate

i will be here for you darling

as you make your way

as you make your way
