Standard (EADGBE)

I've held it all in, Lord knows I've tried

But it's an awful awakening in a country boy's life

To look in the mirror in total surprise

At the hair on my collar and the age in my eyes.

Chorus

Amanda, light of my life

Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife

Amanda, light of my life

Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife

2ND VERSE

It's a measure of people who don't understand

The pleasures of life in a Hillbilly band.

I got my first guitar when I was fourteen

Now I'm pushing 30(?), still wearing jeans.
