D-DU-UDU

- 4x's

Oh I got into a fist fight

On my first day at school

Oh I came home with a fat lip

And a blackened eye to boot

Oh it seems the local bully boy

Well he didn't like me much

When he knocked me down I got right up

Oh what else could i do?

Qh I came home to my old man

Told me what I had to do

'Cause tomorrow that same bully boy

Be waiting there for you

Oh there's good and there's bad in this world we live in

I'm telling you son

Oh believe what you feel, not what you heard

I'm telling you son

I met a girl at 16

And she broke my heart in two

Oh I learned to drink at 17

Had my first woman too

Oh the times they were a changing

And my old town I outgrew

Had to see the world and live my own life

So many things I had to do

Well I quit my job at the cannery

I'd saved a buck or two

Oh I knew I'd miss old mom and dad

But it's what I had to do

Oh there's good and there's bad in this world we live in

I'm telling you son

Oh believe what you feel, not what you've heard

I'm telling you son

When I left home we were standing eye to eye

And he gave me a hug and we said good bye

Ah take care he said

You'll do all allright

Don't forget all I told you

I'm telling you son

Pop was right and I made good

I've been all around the world

Sometimes i think of my home town

People I left behind

Oh maybe someday I'll settle down

and meet a loving girl

Until then, I'll go wandering

it's the life I choose

I carry in my heart the words he said

It seems like yesterday

My pops been gone now a couple years

Still remember what he said

Oh there's good and there's bad in this world we live in

I'm telling you son

Oh believe what you feel, not what you've heard

I'm telling you son

Oh there's good and there's bad in this world we live in

I'm telling you son

Oh believe what you feel, not what you've heard

I'm telling you son

- 6x's then

I'm telling you son, I'm telling you son

I'm telling you son, Oooh, Oooh, Oh
