If you`re wondering why
All of the love that you long for eludes you
And people are rude and cruel to you
I`ll tell you why
I`ll tell you why
I`ll tell you why
You just haven`t earned it yet, baby
You just haven`t earned it yet, son
You just haven`t earned it yet, baby
You must suffer and cry for a longer time
You just haven`t earned it yet, baby
And I`m telling you now
If you`re wondering why
When all I wanted from life was to be Famous
I have tried for so long, it`s all gone wrong
I`ll tell you why
I`ll tell you why
I`ll tell you why
(But you wouldn`t believe me)
You just haven`t earned it yet, baby
You just haven`t earned it yet, my son
You just haven`t earned it yet, baby
You must suffer and cry for a longer time
You just haven`t earned it yet, baby
And I`m telling you now
I`ll tell you why
I`ll tell you why
Today I am remembering the time
When they pulled me back and held me down
And looked me in the eyes and said:
You just haven`t earned it yet, baby
You just haven`t earned it yet, son
You just haven`t earned it yet, baby
You must stay on your own for slightly longer
You just haven`t earned it yet, baby
And I`m telling you now
YOU JUST haven`t earned it yet, baby
If you`re wondering why
