WELL SHE SAID WHEN SHE LEFT THAT A CHANGE MIGHT DO ME GOOD
SO I TOOK HER ADVICE AND I DID THE BEST I COULD
I'VE GONE FROM MR. PAT TILL I'M NOTHING LIKE I USED TO BE
IN FACT EVERYBODY SAYS, I'M A TOTALLY DIFFERENT ME

CHORUS
I GOT A NEW LIFE, BUT I STILL LIKE THE OLD ONE BETTER
IT'S NICE BUT IT WON'T EVER QUITE BE THE SAME
I HAVE EVERYTHING A MAN COULD WANT BUT I CAN'T FORGET HER
I GOT A NEW LIFE, BUT I STILL LIKE THE OLD ONE BETTER

I PULLED UP MY ROOTS IN THE COUNTRY AND I MOVED UP TOWN
WENT FROM A SLOWER PACE, TO RUNNING WITH A FASTER CROWD
I FOUND A SWEET YOUNG GIRL, TO REPLACE ALL THE LOVE WE KNEW
BUT I GUESS THERE'S JUST SOME THINGS THAT YOU CAN'T IMPROVE

REPEAT CHORUS
