lyrics

VERSE 1

Now you walk into the room
Wearin’ shoes three feet wide
You got a brand new woman man
She just made you a bride

You got a brand new house
With your woman by your side
You think you’ve gone to heaven child
You’ve already died

CHORUS

I didn’t mean to sound like I ain’t no fun
I didn’t mean, I surely didn’t mean to hurt no one
You spend your time, you put your troubles in the run
One day, your bad day is gonna come

VERSE 2

Now you’re eighteen years old
Ain’t that a great age to be
You’re living in the age of dynacord
Jet airplanes and TV

You got a little sister
She’s a lot like me
Boy you never go to Heaven child
You got someplace else to be

CHORUS

I didn’t mean to sound like I ain’t no fun
I didn’t mean, I surely didn’t mean to hurt no one
You spend your time, you put your troubles in the run
One day, your bad day is gonna come

BRIDGE

Change coming at you every day
Only thing that’s here to stay
All the time things are getting better
Look out now you’ve got a change in the weather

VERSE 3

Now you may have a nice wife
And you may have some nice kids
You may get to grow old
And talk about everything that you did

Well you have a nice house
And you’re living by the sea
I’m warning you child
Hell comes in degrees

CHORUS

I didn’t mean to sound like I ain’t no fun
I didn’t mean, I surely didn’t mean to hurt no one
You spend your time, you put your troubles in the run
One day, your bad day is gonna come
