Boys Growing Up Lyrics by Ned LeDoux

Safe Haven

2025

[Verse 1]
Mamas talk to Jesus a lot about boys growing up
And the junkyard's still doing a lot of business from boys growing up
When the girls become women, they don't waste any time
While we're playing in the dirt, they're just rolling their eyes
They still keep on falling for boys growing up
[Chorus]
The toys get faster, drinks get stronger
Skin gets thicker and the shadows get longer
We're still falling down
Learning how to pick yourself up off the ground
You know a man's gotta be tough
But don't mind us
We're just boys growing up
[Verse 2]
A lot of broken hearts get blamed on boys growing up
And a lot of diamond rings get bought by boys growing up
A lot of swinging for the fences, a lot of striking out
A lot of breakups and make-ups and coming-back-arounds
Next thing, we know, we're watching our boys growing up
[Chorus]
The toys get faster, drinks get stronger
Skin gets thicker and the shadows get longer
We're still falling down
Learning how to pick yourself up off the ground
You know a man's gotta be tough
But don't mind us
We're just boys growing up
[Bridge]
Mamas talk to Jesus a lot about their boys growing up
And the junkyard's still doing a lot of business from boys growing up
[Chorus]
The toys get faster, drinks get stronger
Skin gets thicker and the shadows get longer
We're still falling down
Learning how to pick yourself up off the ground
You know a man's gotta be tough
But don't mind us
We're just boys growing up
[Outro]
Boys growing up
