Beg Steal or Borrow - Ray LaMontagne

So your home town’s bringing you down

Are you drowning in the small talk

And the chatter

Or 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 jaw 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?

Or 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
