Ten years ago I was made a man
Ten years before I played a lamb
And then I kicked a horse right in the can

Ten days ago I read a book
"ten ways to know your girl's a crook"
When your heart isn't all she took
Your heart isn't all she took

Ten minutes ago I packed bag
With the money from my pockets that made my pants sag
But I'm not leaving for the old main drag

I'm not leaving, I am such a drag
I'm not leaving, I am such a drag
I'm not leaving, come and take my bag
I'm not leaving, here's my white flag

Ten lines ago the story went
Ten lines in a church pageant
Then my eyes were caught by a coronet
I want your coat of arms around my neck
