Fore! lyrics

It used to make me so fed up
People always asking me
What will you be when you grow up
You're gonna need security
Spent a little time in school
Wishing I was somewhere else
Having fun and acting cool
I just want to be myself
And I finally found a home
Where I'll never be alone
Right here where I belong
And I finally found a home
Here, in a song
Thought I'd finally found the one

Well I left my home down on the rural route
Told my pa I was going stepping out
And get the honky tonk blues
Stopped into every place in town
This city life has really got me down
I got the honky tonk blues
Went out last night I wore out my shoes
Woke up this morning wishing I could lose
Those jumping honky tonk blues
I'm gonna tuck my worries underneath my arm

I remember our old neighborhood
Everyone there, they understood
You could wind up stranded in the lost and found
So you better stick together if you want to stick around
Now me and the boys got our own little plan
Somebody out there will understand
And we'll have the world in the palm of our had
I never walk alone, I never walk alone
It isn't what you've got it's who you know

All the birds have been blue
They don't know what to do
Ever since you said goodbye to me
And the flowers in their gloom, have just refused to bloom
Cause we all want you back, you see
All the birds have been blue
They don't know what to do
Ever since you said goodbye to me
And the flowers in their gloom, have just refused to bloom
Cause we all want you back, you see
And even mister moon

I used to be a renegade, I used to fool around
But I couldn't take the punishment, and had to settle down
Now I'm playing it real straight, and yes I cut my hair
You might think I'm crazy, but I don't even care
Because I can tell what's going on
It's hip to be square
I like my bands in business suits, I watch them on TV
I'm working out most everyday and watching what I eat
