Amanda lyrics

I've held it all inward, Lord knows I've tried

It's an awful awakening in a country boy's life

To look in the mirror in total surprise

At the hair on your shoulders and the age in your 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

Well, a measure of people don't understand

The pleasures of life in a hillbilly band

I got my first guitar when I was fourteen

Now I'm crowding thirty and 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

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
