I never really had to learn how to start a fire
So I never had to spend any time putting one out
Seems the sun always shows up
About the time you start looking for matches
And the rain seems to come along
About the time it should be getting dark
I never really had to learn how to write my name
The page was always filled in by the time it got passed to my row
I just make and X and pass it along
And never think about the next time
When I will draw my two lines, just as I’ve done before
I never learned to fish, never learned to climb a tree
Never took a trip to see the town where I was born
Never rode a horse, but one time I came in first place
Hit the finish line and kept on going
I never really had to learn how to pray
Although I’m often on my knees anyway
