Question
So I've been trying to find this song for over 5 months. It's a song about growing up. It starts with a small boy getting on a bus for his first day of school. I don't remember the middle part of the song and the end is about an old man walking or staring down a driveway knowing where he has to go. (kinda of like he is going to a retirement home.)
Answer
Hi Joe! The song I think you're looking for is "The Walk," by Sawyer Brown. I've included the lyrics for you below and a link to the video. Hope this helps!

Song: The Walk
Down our long dusty driveway
I didn't want to go
But I set out with tears in my eyes wondering
Daddy took me by the hand
Looked out at the school bus and his little man and said
"Don't worry boy it will be all right"
Chorus
Cause I took this walk you're walking now
Boy, I've been in your shoes
You can't hold back the hands of time
It's just something you've got to do
So dry your eyes I understand just what you're going through
Cause I took this same walk with my old man
Boy, I've been in your shoes
Down our long dusty driveway
I set my mind to go
I was eighteen and wild and free and wondering
Daddy took me by the hand
Looked at the world and at his grown man and said,
"Don't worry boy it will be all right"
Down our long dusty driveway
This time we both would go
He had grown old and gray
And his mind was wandering
Daddy took me by the hand
Said, "I know where we're going and I understand
Don't worry boy it will be all right"
Chorus
