We All Start Somewhere

Lyrics

[Verse 1] He was a military brat, it was hard to make friends Went to four schools by the time he was ten Those times were tough, had to learn to fit in Had to play the hand he was dealt His daddy was always gone, or comin' home late His brother was a sailor, his mama was a saint She'd say "Rise up from this and make somethin' of yourself" [Chorus] We all start somewhere And where we go from there Is a heck of a ride, it can turn on a time We're all livin' on a prayer There'll be uphill battles you gotta face Everybody's taken a fall from grace You gotta get up, get up, get up Don't worry you'll get there We all start somewhere [Verse 2] Just shy of 17 when he left home Hit that highway for great unknown Made a few wrong turns, met a girl that saved his soul Gave him the faith to begin again They got a little apartment on the wrong side of town Ramen Noodles every night and livin' hand to mouth She'd say "Hey baby, they can't keep us down" They came a long way since then [Chorus] We all start somewhere And where we go from there Is a heck of a ride, it can turn on a time We're all livin' on a prayer There'll be uphill battles you gotta face Everybody's taken a fall from grace You gotta get up, get up, get up Don't worry you'll get there We all start somewhere [Bridge] Sometimes we gotta change direction, screw perfection A bump in the road can be the mother of invention [Chorus] We all start somewhere And where we go from there Is a heck of a ride, it can turn on a time We're all livin' on a prayer There'll be uphill battles you gotta face Everybody's taken a fall from grace You gotta get up, get up, get up Don't worry you'll get there We all start somewhere We all start somewhere
