[ Featuring the Howlers ]
When I was young, I took a wrong train
My ticket said Mindenhall
The conductor said New Orleans
Well, I didn't complain, cause I couldn't change it
My great-uncle Charlie, deaf as a bone
He hadn't heard a single word since World War One
But he don't complain, cause he can't change it
I don't waste my time wishin' things were better
I just wake up happy when tomorrow ain't gone
It ain't gone
Of all the girls that I have known
I drove em home
I drove em crazy, then I drove em off
And I don't regret it, cause I can't change
Well, I am too old a man to make excuses
And I'm too young to stop
I guess you could say I've got a piece of the rock
But I'm gonna keep rollin', cause I can't change
I don't waste my time wishin' things were better
I just wake up happy when tomorrow ain't gone
It ain't gone
My people say don't waste your time
You waste a minute, waste an hour
And you waste your life
Well, it makes me crazy, but I can't change it
Well, it makes me crazy, but I can't change it"
