When I… Songtext
von Michael Trent

When I, when I was a boy
Well I was careless and I was foolish
And I treated life as if it were a toy
Yeah I was careless and I was foolish and I
Treated life as if it were a little baby′s toy

Oh boy, oh boy
But when I, when I was a man
Well I shoveled off my boyish ways and
I set about to learn the best I can
But all the wicked ways of this old
World were just so hard to understand


Oh man, oh man
But if you're stepping hard you′re bound to make some noise
And if you're crying, well then I hope you're overjoyed
And if you′re lacking, let me give you what I have
′Cause I got your back
On the common path

But when I, when I was in love
Well I would count my blessings daily as
It seemed they fell upon me from above
But somehow time had tricked me to
Believing that it just wasn't enough
And I fucked it up
But if you′re stepping hard you're bound to make some noise

Oh and if you′re crying, well then I hope you're overjoyed
And if you′re lacking, let me give you what I have
'Cause I got your back

And I always have
Oh yeah
