Ricus Nel Amanda song lyrics

"Amanda"

I've held it all inward

Lord knows I've tried

It's an awful awakenin'

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 gentle man's wife

Amanda light of my life

Fate should have made you a gentle man's wife.

Well the 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 wearin' jeans.

Amanda light of my life

Fate should have made you a gentle man's wife

Amanda light of my life

Fate should have made you a gentle man's wife.

Amanda light of my life

Fate should have made you a gentle man's wife

Amanda light of my life

Fate should have made you a gentle man's wife
