In the days of my youth,
I was told what it means to be a man.
Now I´ve reached that age
I´ve tried to do all those things the best I can.
No matter how I try,
I find my way to the same old jam.
Good times, bad times,
you know I´ve had my share.
When my woman left home with a browneyed man,
well, I still don´t seem to care.
Sixteen: I fell in love
with a girl as sweet as could be.
It only took a couple of days
till she was rid of me.
She swore that she would be all mine
and love me till the end.
But when I whispered in her ear,
I lost another friend.
Good times, bad times,
you know I´ve had my share.
When my woman left home
with a browneyed man, well, I still don´t seem to care.
Good times, bad times, you know I´ve had my share.
When my woman left home with a browneyed man, well, I still don´t seem to care.
I know what it means to be alone.
I sure do wish I was at home.
I don´t care what the neighbors say,
I´m gonna love you each and every day.
You can feel the beat within my heart.
Realize, sweet babe, we ain´t never gonna part.
You can feel the beat within my heart.
Realize, sweet babe, we ain´t never gonna part.
