I Didn't Know It At The Time

[Verse 1] I thought that my first love would be my wife But in junior high she moved away from here I thought Johnny would always be my best friend I haven't talked to him, in 15 years Back when I had those fights with my old man I never thought he'd be, an old man [Chorus] And I didn't know, all those years ago How the years would go flying by Thought I knew it all But I was wrong And I didn't know it at the time [Verse 2] I never thought good jobs were hard to find Til I let my pride cost me one I never thought my whole life would change Til I heard the doctor say, I had a son I never really thought that I was lost Til I heard my dying mother sing Old Rugged Cross [Chorus] [Verse 3] Oh, I Thought I knew it all Oh, But I was wrong And I didn't know, I didn't know it at the time I didn't know, didn't know, didn't know I didn't know Oh, I didn't know
