Last December I met a girl, she took a likin’ to me
Dm7 G
Said she loved me, but she didn’t know the meanin’ of the word
G Gm9 A#maj7
She imagined love to be grand, me holdin’ her hand and
F Dm7 G
Wisperin’ sweet things and, cooin’ softly like a songbird
G Gm9 A#maj7
Then one mornin’ she came to me, with a tear in her eye and a
F Dm7 G
Sigh on her breath Lord she said, "Hon, I’m heavy with child"
G Gm9 A#maj7
I said "God damn girl can’t you see, that I’m breakin’ my back
F Dm7 G
Just tryin’ to keep my head above water, and it’s turnin’ me wild
G C D G

Rockin’ chair on the front porch, and I’m thinkin’ about all the
Dm7 G
things that I did as a young man, now that I’m old
G Gm9 A#maj7 F
I remember her and the boy, did he have all the toys and the joys
Dm7 G
That a young man should have, before he gets too old
G C D G
