I've held it all in me , God knows I've tried But it's an awful awakening in a country boy's life To stare in the mirror, in total surprise At this hair on my collar and this age in my eyes. Amanda, light of my life Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife Amanda, light of my life Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife. And I've got, a couple more, years on you babe and that?s all I've had more chances to fly, and more chances to fall I never learned how to run, but I learned how to crawl And I've got a couple more years on you babe and that?s all. There's a measure of people, that don't understand The pleasures of life in a country rock band I got my first guitar, when I was thirteen Now I'm 62 years old, and I'm still pretty mean. Amanda, light of my life Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife Amanda, light of my life Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife.
