Back When I Was A Fool (w/Jayson Dyall)
When you look back on your life and realize you weren't as smart or as cool or as mature as you thought you were.
Lyrics
Back When I Was A Fool
words and music by Jayson Dyall 2023
When I was young so long ago
I use to think I knew it all
Had a chip on my shoulder
It got worse as I got older
My momma didn't understand
I got flack from my old man
My ignorance refused to see
They only wanted the best for me
Back when I was a fool, disobeying all the rules
Back when I did not give a damn
Back when I was a fool, back when I thought I was cool
Back when I thought I was the man
As the years go swiftly passed
Life so often kicked my ass
Errors and bad decisions
Life wasn't as I envisioned
My elders tried to teach me right
They tried to make me see the light
I'd go back in time if I could
Turn my bad choices into good
Back when I was a fool, disobeying all the rules
Back when I did not give a damn
Back when I was a fool, back when I thought I was cool
Back when I thought I was the man
BREAK
Back when I was a fool, disobeying all the rules
Back when I did not give a damn
Back when I was a fool, back when I thought I was cool
Back when I thought I was the man
Back when I was a fool, disobeying all the rules
Back when I did not give a damn
And now I'm still a fool, no way was I ever cool
Look at me, I'm just a foolish man, oh-oh-oh.....
