Oh, if I had a big ol' eraser
|
I'd start from today
|
And go back through life's pages
|
And correct a lot of things
|
Yeah, steppin' on toes with my foot in my mouth
|
Yeah, thought I was the king
|
But that was back
|
Back when I knew everything
|
|
Yeah, a good hard head and no regrets
|
Is what I thought made the man
|
But now life's hard knocks is about all
|
I've got
|
And sorry's what I am
|
Yeah, I had my old worn-out opinion
|
Oh, and I sure made it plain
|
But that was back
|
Back when I knew everything
|
|
CHORUS
|
So whaddya say forgive and foget
|
One more chance is all I need
|
Yeah, this ol' loose cannon is a mighty
|
long shot
|
This time I'm askin' please
|
Yeah that's right, I was wrong
|
Now all that I can say
|
Is that was back
|
Back when I knew everything
|
|
Bridge
|
A little too big for my britcher
|
But life's a whittled me down to size
|
I just hope there's enough of me left
|
To apologize
|
(Repeat chorus)
|
|
Oh, that was back
|
Back when I knew everything
|
|

Back When I Knew Everything
