I'm Gonna Be
Brothers 3 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I wake up, well, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next to you
When I go out, yeah, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you
If I get drunk, well, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who gets drunk next to you
And if I haver, hey, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's havering to you

And I would walk five hundred miles
And I would walk five hundred more
Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door

When I'm working, hey, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's working hard for you
When I come home (When I come home), oh, I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you
I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you

But I would walk five hundred miles
And I would walk five hundred more
Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door

Da lat da (Da lat da), da lat da (Da lat da)
Da-da-da dun-diddle un-diddle un-diddle uh da-da
Da lat da (Da lat da), da lat da (Da lat da)
Da-da-da dun-diddle un-diddle un-diddle uh da-da

But I would walk five hundred miles
And I would walk five hundred more




Just to be the man who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door

This is exactly what these competitions need! FUN! Everyone there was having a great time! There is some really great talent on the show this year with different genre's, not everyone wants to hear serious songs. There is room in the business for all of them. I watch this from the US, and you never see our judges having this much fun on the US version. I can't wait to see Brothers3 in the US!
