In

the

days

of

my

youth,

I

was

told

What

it

means

to

be

a

man.

And

now

I've

reached

that

age

I've

tried

to

do

All

those

th-

ings

the

best

I

can

No

mat-

ter

how

I

try

I

find

my

way

in-

to

the

sa-

me

old

jam.

Good

times,

bad

ti-

mes,

you

know

I've

had

my

share.

Well,

my

wo-

man

left

home

for

a

brown

eyed

man,

But

I

still

don't

seem

to

care.

Six-

teen

I

fell

in

love

with

a

girl

as

sweet

as

could

be.

It

on-

ly

took

a

coup-

le

of

days

'till

she

was

rid

of

me

She

swore

that

she

would

be

all

mine

and

love

me

'till

the

end,

But

when

I

whis-

pered

in

her

ear

I

lost

an-

oth-

er

friend.

Oh!

Good

times,

bad

ti-

mes,

you

know

I've

had

my

share.

Well,

my

wo-

man

left

home

for

a

brown

eyed

man,

But

I

still

don't

seem

to

care.

Good

times,

bad

times,

you

know

I've

had

my

share.

Well,

my

wo-

man

left

home

for

a

brown-

eyed

man,

but

I

still

don't

seem

to

care.

I

know

what

it

means

to

be

a-

lone,

I

sure

do

wish

I

was

at

home.

I

don't

care

what

the

neigh-

bors

say,

I'm

gon-

na

love

you

each

and

ev-

'ry

day.

You

can

feel

the

beat

with-

in

my

heart.

Re-

al-

ize

sweet

babe

we

ain't

nev-

er

gon-

na

part.
