歌词
Well, I'm tired of hangin' around
I think I will marry and settle down
'Cause this old nightlife
This old sportin' life is killing me
I got a letter from my home
Most of my friends are dead and gone
And I began to worry
Began to wonder 'bout days to come
Tell 'em 'bout days to come, man
My mother used to say to me
As young and foolish as I could be
Now I have no mother
My sister and brother won't talk to me
Talk to me
She used to fall on her knees and pray
And these are the words she'd say
"Collier, oh Collier, please change your ways"
Now I'm going to change my ways
I'm getting older every day
When I was young and foolish
I was easy led astray
I've been a cheater and a gambler too
Now it has come my time to lose
This sportin' life has got me bested
What can I do?
