Almost There

Can this be my new theme song?





Mama! I don't have time for dancing,
That's just gonna have to wait a while.
Ain't got time for messing around,
And it's not my style.

This old town can slow me down,
People taking the easy way,
But I know exactly where I'm going
I'm getting closer and closer everyday!

And I'm almost there...!
I'm almost there.
People down here think I'm crazy,
But I don't care!
Trials and tribulations,
I've had my share.
But there ain't nothing gonna stop me now,
Cuz I'm almost there!

I remember daddy told me
Fairy tales can come true,
But you gotta make them happen,
It all depends on you!
So I worked real hard each and everyday,
Now things for sure are going my way.
Just doing what I do,
Look out boys, I'm coming through!

And I'm almost there...!
I'm almost there.
People gonna come here from everywhere
And I'm almost there...!
I'm almost there.

There's been trials and tribulations,
I know I've had my share.
But I've climbed a mountain I've crossed a river,
And I'm almost there...!
I'm almost there.
I'm al-most- there...!

What do you want to be?

I loved this song before- and have had the line "Glory, glory hallelujah" stuck in my head all day, but I love that they interviewed kids for this video. Awesome idea. And I'm totally going to use the verse about "grandfather in WWII" in my thesis as an example of family WWII history at work.
