Seventeen I was a dreamer and a poet (yes I was)
Nothing's changed I'm not sure that I know it
I'm as confused as you are
You ask my advice
Before you pull the trigger
Don't think twice
I got no job I got no money
Things are gonna be better one day
I used to think that life was so easy
I Was a Boy Then
You should see me now, hey
I knew this girl, she died of addiction
I made it to here, now ain't that conviction
Oh boy I'm something
Ego still intact (yes it is)
I got no memory
No need to look back
I got no job I got no money
Things are gonna be better one day
I used to think that life was so easy
I Was a Boy Then, you should see me now
Oh-oh, see me now
