In My Life

In my life I never knew Someone who’s as kind as you In my life, in my life In my life I never seen Someone who’s so young and green In my life, in my life I had a friend named Tennessee But in the end he turned on me I dont mind, I dont mind Lincoln in his cavalry Are underneath the council tree In my mind, in my mind In my life I never knew Someone who’s as kind as you In my life, in my life In my life I never seen Someone who’s so young and green In my life, in my life I sat beneath a ceiling fan As the dealer showed his hand In a dream, in a dream His eyes were darting back and forth His finger slipped the safety off In a dream, in a dream In my life I never knew Someone who’s as kind as you In my life, in my life In my life I never seen Someone who’s so young and green In my life, in my life I told the judge I heard a scream Fall from out a window screen That’s all I knew, thats all I knew A cop is on your picket fence Leaning on the evidence Black and blue, black and blue In my life I never seen Someone who’s so young and green In my life, in my life In my life I never knew Someone who’s as kind as you In my life, in my life It use to only be a mile For us to sit and talk a while A memory, a memory And though I hate to see you go I’m grateful you could see me grow To twenty-three, to twenty-three In my life I never knew Someone who’s as kind as you In my life, in my life In my life I never seen Someone who’s so young and green In my life, in my life
