Lyrics

I've held it all inward, God knows I've tried But it's an awful awakenin' in a country boy's life To look in the mirror in total surprise At the hair on my shoulders and the age in my eyes 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 It's a measure in the people who don't understand The pleasures of life in a hillbilly band I got my first guitar when I was 14 Well, I'm finally pass 40, still wearing jeans 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 Thank you
