I'd like to dedicate this
Committing murder on the scene, rock -socking the spot,
doing as we see fit, rocking the house on down.
We've come a long way, baby.
We've struggled through thick and thin.
And if I had to do it over again,
it would be with you, my friend.
But one thing, when I look back, a little further down the line,
all we're gonna be able to say is that it wasn't always that way.
In the beginning, against our odds, we didn't bother,
still we went to school and we always did the job.
And one thing it taught me, I'd like to mention,
is that a good education did for me what
Because with me it's always
from that point on I knew
So I kept on working at it,
You see, when I was just a little boy
My daddy sat me on his knee
And he told me about the fact of life
He said son, if at first you don't succeed,
a little bit of practice is all you need.
Because I wanted to be point guard first
string on my high school basketball team.
I didn't really want to go to school,
just play basketball, that's all.
I couldn't go to prom with my phys ed teacher,
so I tried to get close to a fly chair leader.
But that didn't help my marks and obstacles,
and every subject I took up formed.
So I tried to get back up on my feet,
I even stopped hanging out in the street.
I went to bed about ten o 'clock,
and every morning I was ready to rock.
I ate two bowls of frosted flakes,
and then I had to break out, so I wouldn't be late.
Cause the early birds always
And I figure it's just about
In the beginning, in the beginning
