Lyrics

I was 19 when Shandy came And no one seemed to like her Name But I heard it in A song and I Thought It sounded so sweet Now She's 9 years old and all arms And legs Follows me everywhere and always Begs me to play, come on Daddy Let's play But I never give A damn about Anything All I ever wanted to do was sing My yard's over+ growled, my roof Leaks Me and my neighbors, we rarely Speak And I never gave A damn about Cars and guns Long as they'd shoot and as long as They'd run I guess it's A good thing I nevеr had A son I was 21 when Jessica came I hеard the Allman Brothers song And I liked that name And I Thought it sounded so good With le moin Now she's 8 years old and thinks I Hung The Moon And I hope it don't hurt her when Someday soon She finds out I ain't nothing special Just A lonely man 'Cause I never was much good for Anything All I ever wanted to do was sing The yard's over - growed and all The faucets leak Me and my neighbors we rarely Speak Well I never gave A damn about Cars and guns 'Long as they'd shoot and 'long as They'd run So I guess its A good thing I never Had A son I was 24 when Cheyenne came And The Grievous Angel left me her Name And the Innocence in her eyes, it Still chills me But I broke her heart so many Times And I dared Tryin' to make sad Words right But somethin' down inside me tells Me Baby it'll be worthwhile to see You smile I never was much good for Anything All I ever wanted to do was sing The yard's over - growed and the Faucets leak Me and my family we seldom speak And I never gave A damn about Cars and guns 'Long as They'd shoot and 'long as They'd run I guess it's A good thing I never had A son Ah, but in the long run GOD works in mysterious ways
