I paid all my dues
|
So I picked up my shoes
|
I got up and walked away
|
Oh, I was just a boy
|
Giving it all away
|
I didn't know how to play
|
I've worked hard and failed
|
Now all I can say is
|
I threw it all away
|
Oh, I was just a boy
|
Giving it all away
|
Sail away, sail away
|
Ooh, well I know better now,
|
I know better now
|
Giving it all away
|
Oh oh, I now better now,
|
I know better now
|
I've given it all away
|
Went out in the world
|
Too much for my nerves
|
Well, only myself to blame
|
See, I was just a boy
|
And there was nobody else to blame
|
I've done all I can
|
Now it's out of my hands
|
Stand on my head and say
|
Oh, I was just a boy
|
Giving it all away
|
Sail away, yeah sail away
|
Oh, I know better now,
|
I know better now
|
Ain't gonna give it all away
|
Oh oh, yeah yeah, I now better now,
|
I know better now
|
Ain't gonna give it all away
|
Ooh, I know better now
|
I know better now
|
I've given it all away
|
See I was just a boy
|
Giving it all away
|
I was just a boy
|
Giving it all away
|
Oh, I know better now
|
Giving it all away
|
I was just a boy
