Maddie & Tae - Downside Of Growing Up Lyrics






Pack your bags and hug your mom
Been dreaming about leaving for so long
You start to cry as you crank the truck
Yeah, that's the downside of growing up

Fixin' up your brand new place
First day in and something breaks
Your dad ain't there to get you unstuck
Yeah, that's the downside of growing up

That's alright, that's okay
It's just the way you find your way
It's the road you gotta take to get where you're going
You're gonna twist, you're gonna turn
But it's how you're gonna learn
A lot about life, a lot about love
On the downside of growing up

It starts out as a single date
Before too long, he's your everything
'Til he leaves you standing in a cloud of dust
Yeah, that's the downside of growing up

That's alright, that's okay
It's just the way you find your way
It's the road you gotta take to get where you're going
You're gonna twist, you're gonna turn
But it's how you're gonna learn
A lot about life, a lot about love
On the downside of growing up

I know what you're feeling
Yeah, I understand
'Cause where you are is where I've been
And where I still am

And I'm alright, I'm okay
Yeah, I know I'll find my way
On the road I gotta take to get where I'm going
I'm gonna twist, I'm gonna turn
But it's how you're gonna learn
A lot about life, a lot about love
On the downside of growing up

A lot about life, a lot about love
On the downside of growing up

    Incredible

  28. Q.... A....

    I'm 14 and have a lot to learn about growing up and I really love this song

  29. W.... L....

    They are awesome. Some them as an opening act and was impressed. Wish they received more play on the radio.

  30. R.... M....

    I wish I had found these videos 3 yrs ago when they all over the radio. If these are the "acoustic" versions of their songs then they never should have been recorded any other way. I swear the producers in Nashville have to be the worst anywhere. They take beautifully written and arranged songs like these and completely FUCK them up with all their electronic beatboxes and shit. Why anybody takes their music to Nashville anymore is beyond me. Nashville may be the worst thing to ever happen to country music.

  31. A.... N....

    I really think tae should have more solo singing parts... you can't even here her voice really in pretty much all of the song you guys do it is usually always Maddie! 😔😔

  32. H.... B....

    I love maddie and tae SO much

  33. B.... L....

    I love this song

  34. G.... P....

    the way you tell if a singer has that special something is when they do an acoustic version of their songs without all the extra recording help and the sound is just as good as the CD. these girls are lovely :)

  35. c.... a....

    You're very beautiful

  36. m.... ....

    wich is maddie and wich one is tae

  37. M.... H....

    I am a big fan and i love your songs

  38. A.... H....

    Hey there pros you’d think they know what they’re doing they probably did so many tries and see who’s voice sounds a bit better in there songs 😊

  39. V.... L....

    This song has a great message in it. :)

  40. A.... H....

    Can I hear more songs please🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😍😘

  41. A.... A....

    hi i am the girls sister how is 10 we hope really love you guys and we hope you can come play a song in Missouri for us bye we love you guys so much.

  42. A.... A....

    you guys are really good at singing i love you guys

    alright enough with the complaining about how Tar should sing more. Can we just focus on the beauty of the comforting, much-needed message of this song, that at least for me personally, but I also think for many of my fellow class of 2017, is something we really needed to hear, and makes me feel a whole lot less uneasy about my upcoming major transition from childhood to the adult world? These ladies sure know how to write a good song that people at the point I'm at in my life really need to hear, can we not agree on that?

  48. A.... H....

    I was going to ask who was who, but after reading these comments, I understand, lol. Maddie is the lead singer while Tae is the backup.

  49. J.... B....

    Gorgeous

  50. T.... K....
