| When I was just a boy, I never had a toy
|
| My folks were just too poor to buy me balls
|
| But if the fate were mine, another place
|
| Another time
|
| I would have been a rich man’s son
|
| But I’m always in the wrong place
|
| Always at the wrong time
|
| It’s slowly messing up my mind
|
| I’m always in the wrong place
|
| Always at the wrong time
|
| Always just a little bit behind
|
| Every single day, this young man
|
| Works hard for his pay
|
| But it never seems to be enough
|
| Now I’ve been shooting for the sky
|
| Shot down by every try
|
| Getting their, stamp, is mighty tough
|
| 'Cause I’m always in the wrong place
|
| Always at the wrong time
|
| It’s slowly messing up my mind
|
| I’m always in the wrong place
|
| Always at the wrong time
|
| It’s slowly messing up my mind
|
| When I first met you, I thought your love
|
| Was true
|
| I wanted you to be my wife
|
| But last night when I was by myself
|
| Girl I saw you with somebody else
|
| I guess that’s just the story of my life
|
| 'Cause I’m always in the wrong place
|
| Always at the wrong time
|
| It’s slowly messing up my mind
|
| Now, I’m always in the wrong place
|
| Always at the wrong time
|
| Always just a little bit behind
|
| People I’m, 'Cause I’m always in the wrong place
|
| Always at the wrong time |
