I Remember When (Remastered 2021)

I remember when I saw the sea freeze
But it said nothing about the birds and the bees
That were swarming around my head
You'd be better off dead

But I ain't going down like that
I ain't going down like that

'Cause I'm better than him
And I know where I've been
And I know where I'm comin' from
And a lie, it's a sin, but don't we all sin?
That is the truth and the truth is grim

Now he's in jail, his story is for sale
The farmer's dog wags his crippled tail
He points to the West, and he leaves out the rest
Invites you to be his special guest

I remember when I saw the leaves fall
I was in the woods
In a gown you wouldn't wear to ball
Into the ditch I fly, wanted dead or alive

But I ain't going down like that
No, I ain't going down like that

'Cause I'm better than him
And I know where I've been
And I know where I'm comin' from
And a lie, it's a sin, but don't we all sin?
That is the truth and the truth is grim

Now that he's in jail, his story's for sale
The farmer's dog wags his crippled tail
He points to the West, and he leaves out the rest
Invites you to be his special guest

Aye, aye, aye, aye

Aye, aye, aye, aye

'Cause I'm better than him
And I know where I've been
And I know where I'm comin' from
And a lie, it's a sin, but don't we all sin?
That is the truth and the truth is grim, now stop
