Oh Brother

No man is a hero every day
Even a champion loses the day before the race
Try not to be sleeping when you're wide awake
And when your chance comes, have fun, don't be afraid
Oh brother, all you got to know is who you are
And it'll be alright, alright
Oh brother, once you realize that you're a star
You're gonna shine so bright
You don't always have to want to play
And you won't always have to be willing to pay
Try to make sure to make more love than hate
And when your chance comes stand up, mean what you say
Oh brother, all you got to know is who you are
And it'll be alright, alright
Oh brother, once you realize that you're a star
You're gonna shine so bright
It won't always be easy along the way
And you won't always believe me when I say
You don't need anything but life and faith
And you can always call out my name
You just got to shine on, shine on, shine on, shine on, shine on
Little brother
You got to shine on, shine on, shine on, shine on
My little brother
Could we just get some of that good old time J.T. right here now baby
Well, you know some old time J.T., old time
Oh brother, all you got to know is who you are
And it'll be alright, alright
Oh brother, once you realize that you're a star
You're gonna shine so bright
Oh brother, all you got to know is who you are
And it'll be alright, alright
Oh brother, once you realize that you're a star
You're gonna shine so bright
You're gonna shine on, shine on, shine on, shine on
Little brother
You got to shine on, shine on, shine on, shine on, shine on, shine on
My little brother
You got to shine on, shine on, shine on, shine on, shine on, shine on
My little brother
