When I Was a Boy

When I was a boy of 18

Waiting in the table

Taking everything I called it mine

Owning every favor

Will you wait for me

When it's all said and done?

Will you call my name

When I'm under the gun?

I was singing along

I was waiting my turn

Now I'm caught up in the brambles

Begging to unlearn

When I was a man of 21

Saying I was able

I'd go round and town to town

Singing you a fable

Now I'm a man of 23

Trying to fight the battles

Waiting for my chance to prove I changed

I realize I haven't

Will you wait for me

When it's all said and done?

Will you call my name

When I'm under the gun?

I was singing along

I was waiting my turn

Now I'm caught up in the brambles

Begging to unlearn

Will you wait for me

When it's all said and done?

Will you call my name

When I'm under the gun?

I was singing along

I was waiting my turn

Now I'm caught up in the brambles

Begging to unlearn

Will you wait for me

When it's all said and done?

Will you call my name

When I'm under the gun?

I was singing along

I was waiting my turn

Now I'm caught up in the brambles

Begging to unlearn
