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 into
the same old jam
Good times bad times
You know I've had my share
Well my woman left home
for a brown-eyed man
But 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
'til she was rid of me
She swore that she
would be all mine
And love me 'til the end
But when I whispered
in her ear
I lost another friend oh
Good times bad times
You know I've had my share
Well my woman left home
for a brown-eyed man
But I still don't seem to care
Good times bad times
You know I've had my share
Well my woman left home
for a brown-eyed man
But 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 ever gonna part
