Content

The song's lyrics tell the story of decisions a boy must make in his life and whether he should follow his whims ("spirit of a boy") or act with integrity and good faith ("wisdom of a man") when his high school sweetheart tells him she's pregnant and when he's faced with the temptations of life on the road after he's married with a child at home.
