when i was younger i could care for the world / but, oh, i've got my own problems now / now that i'm older i don't see much of the world / because, oh, i've got my own problems now / i traded the world for the people in town / now i know they've got their own problems / i used to walk with my head in the clouds / now i keep it firmly slanted down / i just wanted to be alright / i just wanted to sleep last night / i just wanted to hold my baby tight / and make her laugh when she comes home from work / and then play some guitar so my brain doesn't hurt / blake help me out / this love thing's getting me down / has it been too long since i have been without / it's left and right / it's up and down / it's a mess / i just know it helps to write these feelings down / just go, just get out / i don't need this worry or foolish self-doubt / hey i'm a man / i've got my band / who's the stallion, girl? / we're just trying to make a place for ourselves in this world / without pushing or pulling or shoving someone down
