Moved out my parent's house
Learned how to fend for myself
I got five rand in my bank account
Had to buy a coffee for the girl I like
But my card got declined
And so I asked my dad
To send some money fast
And he says
Son, one day you'll need to learn
Money's something you gotta earn
Yeah you know it doesn't grow on trees
Son, one day you'll need to stop
Drinking away all you got, yeah
It's your own responsibility
Wallets empty, like I feared
I spent all of my cash on beer
Gotta stay out of the clubs
Last night's entrance was too much
I'm failing my first year
Mom don't like my behaviour
Gotta get myself in check
And dad says, yeah
Son, one day you'll need to learn
Money's something you gotta earn
Yeah you know it doesn't grow on trees
Son, one day you'll need to stop
Drinking away all you got, yeah
It's your own responsibility
