When I was just a boy,
I never had a toy.
My folks were just too poor
to buy me one.
But if the fates were kind,
another place, another time,
I would have been a rich man's son.
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 looks hard for his game.
But it never seems to be enough.
Always at the wrong time,
it's slowly messing up my mind.
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.
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.
