Everybody tells me that it's so hard to make it,
it's so hard to break it,
and there's no way to fake it.
Everybody tells me that it's wrong what I'm feeling,
I shouldn't believe in,
the dreams that I'm dreamin'.
I hear it everyday,
I hear it all the time.
I'm never gonna amount to much
but they're never gonna change my mind.
OH!

Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't know (x3).
Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't know (x3).

How many inches in a mile?
What it takes to make you smile.
Getcha not to treat me like, a child, baby

Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't know something (x3).

Tell me, tell me,
something I don't know.
Tell me, tell me,
something I don't know.

Everybody tells me
I don't know what I'm doing,
this life I'm pursuing,
the odds I'll be loosing.
Everybody tells me that it's one in a million,
like one in a billion
one in a zillion.
I hear it everyday,
I hear it all the time,
I'm never gonna amount to anything,
but they're never gonna change my mind.
OH!

Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't know (x3).
Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't know (x3).

How many inches in a mile?
What it takes to make you smile.
Getcha not to treat me like, a child, baby

Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't know (x3).

I'm, on my way.
I know I'm, gonna get there someday.
It, doesn't help, when you say:
It won't be easy!

Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't know (x3).
Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't know (x3).

How many inches in a mile?
What it takes to make you smile.
Getcha not to treat me like, a child, baby.

Tell me, tell me, tell me,
something I don't know (x3).
Tell me, tell me, tell me,
