Beg Steal or Borrow Songtext

von Ray LaMontagne

So your home town's bringing you down
Are you drowning in the small talk
And the chatter?

Are you gonna step into line like your daddy done,
Punching the time and climbing life's long ladder?

You've been howling at the moon like a slack jawed fool
And breaking every rule they can throw on.
But one of these days it's gonna be right soon
You'll find your legs and go and stay gone.

Young man full of big plans and thinking about tomorrow.
Young man going to make a stand you beg, steal you borrow.
You beg, you steal, you borrow.

Well all the friends that you knew in school,
They used to be so cool and they just bore you.

Well look at them now, already pulling the plow,
So quick to take to grain like some old mule.

Young man full of big plans and thinking about tomorrow.
Young man going to make a stand, you beg, steal, you borrow
You beg, you steal, you borrow.

Dreaming of the day
You're gonna pack your bags,
Put the miles away.
Oh, just grab your girl and go
Where no one knows you,
What will all the old folks say?

So the home town's bringing you down
Are you drowning in the small talk and the chatter?
Are you gonna step into line like your daddy done
Punching the time and climbing life's long ladder?

Young man full of big plans and thinking about tomorrow.
Young man going to make a stand, you beg, steal, you borrow
You beg, you steal, you borrow.
