Your life begins when teardrops start, a broken toy, a broken heart
   All of these things are just a part of growing up
   From kiddie cars to walking shoes from lullabyes to lonely blues
   Somehow you never quite get used to growing up
   Yeah Yeah you're growing up, yeah Yeah you're growing up
   It's good to know you're growing up.
  
   The wheel of fortune takes a spin
   Sometimes you lose, sometimes you win
   But you must play the game again
   Drink another cup,You're growing up.
   Yeah Yeah you're growing up, yeah yeah you're growing up
   It's good to know you're growing up.
  
   Heeeeey eeeeey now little one you're growing up
   Heeeeey eeeeey now little one you're growing up.
   To be a man, to be a woman to understand, takes a lot of growing, growing up
   You'll live to learn, you'll learn to live, you'll give to love your love to give
   And when you're wise enough you'll know, you're growing up.
