When I was 10 years old, my parents were poor
  Our house was so cold
  And I was still in school and learning
  And then I never really got too far
  And ev'ryone we knew had money
  And driving a car, and driving a car
    Now I'm twenty-one
  The street where I lived is blown up and gone
  And I've had a good day crying
  And the world around has changed alot
  I never really gave much more
  Much more then I got, much more then I got
