The Road You Choose Lyrics

He a skinny young kid who sets in the back of the class
Nobody knows his name nobody cares to ask
They just set up front and tell him that he won’t go far
Not knowing that one day he’ll grow up to be a movie star

Chorus
You got to hold your head up high if your gonna see it all
Got to put your foot above the rest if your gonna rise at all
Spread your wings and fly if you don’t want to fall
It’s the road that you choose that will take you through it all

Now that kids grown up to be that movie star
Seemed like yesterday people told him that he wouldn’t go far
Tonight’s his big premier he’s got tons of fans
Next week he’s on The Late Show with David Letterman


You got to hold your head up high if your gonna see it all
Got to put your foot above the rest if your gonna rise at all
Spread your wings and fly if you don’t want to fall
It’s the road that you choose that will take you through it all

He’s older now he’s got gray hair and all
He’s got two teenage kids John and Paul
One of them is having the same problems he did too
He just said son hold on here’s what you got to do, got to do, got to do, got to do

You got to hold your head up high if your gonna see it all
Got to put your foot above the rest if your gonna rise at all
Spread your wings and fly if you don’t want to fall
It’s the road that you choose that will take you through it all
