Mama! I don't have time for dancing! That's just gonna have to wait a while Ain't got time for messing around And it's not my style This old town can slow you down People taking the easy way But I know exactly where I'm going Getting closer and closer every day And I'm almost there, I'm almost there People down here think I'm crazy, but I don't care Trials and tribulations, I've had my share There ain't nothing gonna stop me now 'cause I'm almost there I remember Daddy told me: "Fairytales can come true You gotta make 'em happen, it all depends on you" So I work real hard each and every day Now things for sure are going my way Just doing what I do Look out boys, I'm coming through And I'm almost there, I'm almost there People gonna come here from everywhere And I'm almost there I'm almost there There's been trials and tribulations You know I've had my share But I've climbed the mountain, I've crossed the river And I'm almost there, I'm almost there I'm almost there!
