I've held it all inward god knows i've tried
It's an awful awakenin' in a country boy's life
To look in the mirror in total surprice
At the hair on your shoulders and the age in your eyes

Amanda light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife
Amanda light of my life
Fate should have made you a gentleman's wife

Well a measure of people don't understand
The pleasure of life in a hillbilly band
I got my first guitar when i was fourteen
Now i'm crowdin' thirty and still wearing jeans

Amanda light of my life...
Amanda light of my life...
