Karaoké 7 & 7 Turnpike Troubadours

Back when you

Oh 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

And how do I find that old familiar feelin'

The one that carried me so many years ago

Fun was dominos and Seven-Up and Seagram's

Well things 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 mama warned you about

Well I had no clue I'd be the boy who your mama 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 supermarket aisle

Well I, well I know Hello would surely end up awkward

I never had the knack for talkin' anyway

And you're not the kind for bendin' over backwards

Smile and turn my shoppin' cart around and walk away

And ain't it strange

Well ain't it strange

Well I had no clue I'd be the boy who your mama warned you about

Well I had no clue I'd be the boy who your mama warned you about

Well ain't it strange how well I knew you back when I was seventeen

And lovin' you was easy babe but I was just a child

And these days you ain't nothin'

Just an interstate daydream

Folks were sleepin' and we were runnin' wild

And I still do my share of sleepin' on the floor

I'm not sure if anybody knows me anymore

Well I had no clue I'd be the boy who your mama warned you about

Well I had no clue I'd be the boy who your mama warned you about
