Creedence Clearwater Revival - Someday Never Comes Lyrics

First thing I remember was askin' papa, Why?
For there we're many things I didn't know.
And Daddy always smiled; took me by the hand,
Sayin', "Someday you'll understand.

Chorus

Well, I'm here to tell you now each and ev'ry mother's son
You better learn it fast; you better learn it young,
'Cause, "Someday" Never Comes.

Well, time and tears went by and I collected dust,
For there we're many things I didn't know.
When Daddy went away, he said, "Try to be a man,
And, Someday you'll understand.

Chorus

And then, one day in April, I wasn't even there,
For there we're many things I didn't know.
A son was born to me; Mama held his hand,
Sayin' Someday you'll understand.

Chorus

Think it was September, the year I went away,
For there we're many things I didn't know.
And I still see him standing, try'n' to be a man;
I said, "Someday you'll understand."

Chorus

Mmmm-mmmm-mmmm....
