You got the world boyThis all you make it?
You had the choice lad
You wouldnt take it
The oldest charmOnly the best for youAnd the years of my life,
Some they were so good,
But now and again I feel
I was a coward
Are the holes in my soul
In tatters for all these tears
Well you dont see it that wayA way, a wayWe'lll have it todayThe dancing ones they really mean itBut something boy,
somethings gonna changeA way, a wayYouve got it they say
How do they know
When theyve never seen it?And what will you do
When they forget your name?Well you'll up and get another oneDon't give me that face
I know when I should live in disgrace
Not dig up the deadwood
I knew this place was never the place for meAnd of the years that rolled by
Yeah some were so good
But now I know that
You were the coward
The holes in your soul
In tatters for all these yearsBut you cant see it that wayA way, a wayWell have it today
The dancing ones they really mean it
And mark my words
Something's gonna changeA way, a way
Youve got it they say
But how do they know
When theyve never seen it?
And what will you do
When they forget your name?Well you'll up and get another oneA way, a way
We'll have it today
The dancing ones they really mean it
But something boy
somethings gonna changeA way, a way
Youve got it today
But how do they know
When theyve never seen it?
And what will you do
When they forget your name?Well you'll up and get another oneBy Gumo® Montevideo-Uruguay
