I've held it all inward

God knows I've tried

But it's an awful awakening in a country boy's life

To look in the mirror in total surprise

At the hair in my shoulders and the 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

Well measure of It's people a who don't understand

The pleasesure of life in a hillbilly band

I got my first guitar when I was fourteen

Well I finally made forty 'still wearing jeans

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

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
