Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've held it all in
God knows I tried
It's an awful awakening
In a country boy's life
Look in the mirror
In total surprise
At the hair on my shoulders
And the age in my eyes
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
It's a measure of people
Who don't understand
The pleasures of life
In a hillbilly band
Got my first guitar
When I was fourteen
Now I'm pushing forty
And I'm still wearing jeans
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
Thank you all
