on my own

Lucky Dube

On my own, on my own,
On my own, on my own,
On my own, on my own,
On my own, on my own,

I have been waiting twenty years
For this time to come
I am tired of being called mama's boy
I am tired of being told, what to do and when to do
I have to be a boss of my own
I am no longer go play hide and seek
Cause am a grown up man today
Am gonna do things my way
Cause am a grown up man today
Am gonna do things my way

On my own, on my own,
On my own, on my own,
On my own, on my own,
On my own, on my own,

I have learnt to believe in myself, and in nobody else
I will face the future with pride, and do the best I can
Thank you daddy for having been, so good to me
I was tired of being called mama's boy
I have to be a boss of my own
I am no longer gonna play hide and seek
Cause am a grown up man today
Am gonna do things my way

On my own, on my own,
On my own, on my own,
On my own, on my own,
On my own, on my own,
