As a young boy, daddy used to tell me stories "Do your thing my son, the world is yours The winds of fury will lead to paths of glory Take it in your stride my son, the world is yours" "You can only find the gold by digging in the dirt If you're gonna play with fire, then you're gonna get burned You can never reach the heights and avoid the hurt, yeah The world is yours" As a young boy, daddy used to tell me stories "Do your thing and sing, the world is yours The winds of fury pave the way to paths of glory Keep your self on side my son, and the world is yours" "Yeah, you might have it all but you'll still want more There's a law for the rich and another for the poor There's a golden key, unlocks all the doors And the world is yours" The world is yours The world is yours The world is yours The world is yours There's a time and a place for everything Not a man alive you owe a thing From the stars in the sky to the ocean floor The world is yours The world is yours The world is yours People say they're never gonna turn away And then when it comes on top They'll be the first to turn their backs away First whose heads are gonna drop First to slowly fade away So remember all your days The world is yours and all the world contains Well you might have it all but you'll still want more There's a law for the rich and another for the poor There's a golden key, unlocks all the doors And the world is yours The world is yours The world is yours The world is yours The world is yours The world is yours
