Little Man

Hold on for dear life little man, little man You'll be living with the cards that you've been dealt You can hold the world in your hands, little man But you'll never know the pain your mother felt You may find yourself a middle man, little man And you worry it's an ordinary life Then one day you find you're in demand, lonely man And in a moment she will want to be your wife This is a complicated world That offers you very simple days Where all the simple minded people Live in pure and simple ways There are no ordinary lives Only some ordinary days Where all the ordinary people Live in extraordinary ways Then you welcome to your life a little girl, it's a girl A little later than you wanted but to early for this world And you can hold her tiny body in your hands, lucky man She will overcome more than the other girls could ever stand This is a complicated world That offers you very simple days Where all the simple minded people Live in pure and simple ways There are no ordinary lives Only some ordinary days Where all the ordinary people Live in extraordinary ways Hold on for dear life little man, little man You'll be living with the cards that you've been dealt You can hold the world in your hands, little man But you'll never know the pain your mother felt
