Diamonds & Gasoline

Back when you, when you were my darlin

I didn’t mind to lose a little sleep

I didn’t mind to do a little walkin

Reputation never meant that much to me

How do I find that old familiar feeling?

The one that carried me so many years ago

Fun was dominos and 7Up and Seagram’s

Thing were simple then just movin nice and slow

Ain’t it strange?

Well, ain’t it strange?

Well I had no clue, I’d be the boy who

Your momma warned you about

Well I had no clue, I’d…be the boy who

Your momma warned you about

Well, that old scene is always comin to me

I see you standin with your husband and your child

And you’re a picture of strength, and grace and beauty

And me I’m just a fool in a super market aisle

Well I, well know hello would surly end up awkward

I never had the knack for talkin any way

You’re not the kind for bending over backwards

Smile and turn my shopping cart around and walk away

Ain’t it strange

Well, ain’t it strange

Well I had no clue, I’d be the boy who

Your momma warned you about

Well I had no clue, I’d be the boy who

Your momma warned you about

Ain’t it stange how well I knew you back when I was 17

Lovin you was easy babe but I was just a child

And these days you aint nothin just an interstate

daydream

Folks were sleepin and we were runnin wild

And I still do my share of sleepin on the floor

Not sure if anybody knows me anymore

Well I had no clue, I’d be the boy who

Your momma warned you about

Well I had no clue, I’d be the boy who

Your momma warned you about
