Lyrics No One Told Me - Henry Jamison

No One Told Me

No one told me all the ways of the world
How could they
They are sundry and immense
The truancy came easily
Till I found my Galleons Lap
And I had to turn my back
On that world
Come down in the morning
With the tiger lily girl
I was once a champion of
That way with the world
No one told me there was something in my teeth
Skin of a peach, till she told me
And no one told me how the love would grow
Till she said so
My car I couldn’t drive
Growing pains in my bones
Oh I sat there paralyzed
Like a man in a snow blow
Come down in the morning
With the tiger lily girl
I was once a champion of
That way with the world
