Did you hear about me Me and what I've done I wrote a letter to sweet Louise I confessed my love And I thought that everyone would know by now I've been alive long enough to know how things just get around And everybody probably thinks I'm crazy Well I'll just tell you now That I fell in love and I couldn't help myself I just fell in love and I couldn't help myself ""One, two, a one, two, three, four"" It was like a movie Watching her eyes read What I wrote made sweet Louise Feel weak in her knees And I thought that everyone would know by now I've been alive long enough to know how things just get around And everybody probably thinks I'm crazy Well I'll just tell you now That I fell in love and I couldn't help myself I just fell in love and I couldn't help myself In that moment you knew from her eyes She don't feel the same But oh my words were not in vain 'Cause I can always say till the day I die That I, I told her anyway Well I'll just tell you now That I fell in love and I couldn't help myself I just fell in love and I couldn't help myself I just fell in love and I couldn't help myself I just fell in love and I couldn't help myself I just fell in love
I drove a nail in the bottom of my walking boot so I wail every time I hit the floor I'm dragging and I'm bleeding I'm begging and I'm pleading cause I thought you had another and you cannot have another lover I don't believe in loving with a ball and chain cause I feel how it crippled me inside I thought you were a cheating I couldnt bear you leaving now I know you didn't do it I need you to believe me when I say I didn't mean it I didn't mean it what I said, I didn't mean it baby, I didn't mean it so I accused you wrong now I'm the guilty one hey, give me my sentence I'll pay my penance nothing kills me more than the pain I have for hurting you I didn't mean it I didn't mean it what I said, I didn't mean it baby, I didn't mean it what I said, I didn't mean it I didn't mean it what I said, I didn't mean it baby, I didn't mean it I didn't mean it I didn't mean it what I said, I didn't mean it baby, I didn't mean it what I said, I didn't mean it I didn't mean it what I said, I didn't mean it baby, I didn't mean it
There will always be someone worse than you Sister don't let it get to your head 'Cause you won't be on top of the world so long In constant competition
This ain't about no one in particular But I could list a few I'm removing myself from the queue
Don't care about being a winner Or being smooth with women Or going out on Fridays Being the life of parties Don't care about being harder Or being Daddy's favorite Or if you think I'm a mimic Or if I am a loser
Don't care about being a winner Or being smooth with women Or going out on Fridays Being the life of parties Don't care about being harder Or being Daddy's favorite Or if you think I'm a mimic Or if I am a loser
Oh where am I gonna find a free feeling Oh the one I've always wanted to know Where I am not afraid of revealing, oh no I'll show whatever I want whenever I want
Well I've done an awful lot of concealing Yeah I've spent a lot of time just sitting at home Oh and is the only way to find a free feeling on the road Where you go wherever you want whenever you want
When you live in the unknown it becomes your home And when you got nowhere left to go Then you're gonna know
Where not to look for freedom When you're inside your prison And you're the only warden Tell me where to look for freedom
Well I've been looking real hard for a teacher But they better not be looking for me 'Cause I never found one in a preacher, oh Lord Anyone that says that they see the way I should be
When everything you know You don't recognize at all Well then you got nowhere left to go Then you're gonna know
Where not to look for freedom When you're inside your prison And you're the only warden Tell me where to look for freedom
Oh I been getting heavy into my reading Oh I been listening to my favorite song Well I could never keep down a force-feeding too long Eat up whatever I want whenever I want
Well you're gonna meet the wall When you think you've heard it all And then you got nowhere left to go Then you're gonna know
Where not to look for freedom When you're inside your prison And you're the only warden Don't have to leave the country You cannot find your wisdom In someone else's story But if you find your glory Tell me where to look for freedom
Oh where am I gonna find a free feeling Tell me where to look for freedom Oh where am I gonna find a free feeling Tell me where to look for freedom Oh where am I gonna find a free feeling Tell me where to look for freedom
