Just a bit of slim

F They hFad my future wraFpped up in a pGarcel
and nFo one even tGhought of asking mFe.
The day I turned fifteFen I caght the maGiltrain
To fiFnd what else might bGe in life for mFe.
I rAmode on trucks and trains and lived E7on nothing;
SAmerved me right for wanting to be frG7ee-
Ah well thFat's the way socFiety looked aGt it,
But it dFidn't seem to beG that way to mFe.
Chorus
And the biggFest disappointGment in the famFily was me;
the only twisted braFnch upon our goG7od old fam'y tree
I just couFldn't be the peE7rson they ecpecAmted me to be
A7 And the bigFgest disappiontFment in the worGld was mFe
A lot more dinner times than there dinners
I learned a lot that hurt me at the time
Then this quiet country boy came home a different man
with a memory of distance on my mind
But i always spoke to loud and drank to often,
Maybe drank to many glasses down
And perhaps my clothes were older that I realized
A relief to all concerned when I left town
