Sixteen years have made me a rebellious man Sixteen years, it took too long to understand Nothing appears to change my direction I'm out of fears, I need no correction I'm a man with a plan, you shot your lazy man I'll pack my bags and hit the road It took sixteen years, sixteen years It took sixteen years, sixteen years It took sixteen years to walk out the door Sixteen years, sixteen years It took sixteen years, sixteen years I ain't coming back no more Now that you ain't near, I see my fate so very clear My fate appears to change my direction I'm out of fears, I need no correction I'm a man with a plan, you shot your lassie man I backed my backside and hit the road, road It took sixteen years, sixteen years It took sixteen years, sixteen years It took sixteen years to walk out the door Sixteen years, sixteen years It took sixteen years, sixteen years I ain't coming back no more Sixteen years, sixteen years I won't get out of the door Sixteen years, sixteen years I ain't coming back no more I'm out!
