Second Childhood Lyrics

Back in the schoolyard, life wasn't so hard
But I couldn't wait to leave
I left school at sixteen, tired of the routine
Money is what I need

I got into the job line
But there's no work for my kind
No school tie and no degree
No chance for me

I found some employment but still no enjoyment
I worked in a factory
I picked up my wages, the first time in ages
It don't seem enough to me

The years go by in slow time
Became a man in no time
You came along, the time was right
Turned on the light

Gonna love my life away
I wish I could
(I wish I could)
Girl, you're leadin' me astray
I've been misunderstood
(Misunderstood)
Oh, I'm in my second childhood, oh

Back on the breadline, seemed like a long time
The waiting was all in vain
I spent my vacation down at the stationFoghat - Second Childhood - http://motolyrics.com/foghat/second-childhood-lyrics.html
Waving to all the trains

After this deep depression
I shoulda learned my lesson
I found you in the nick of time
Who'll buy the wine?

Gonna love my life away
I wish I could
(I wish I could)
Girl, you're leadin' me astray
I've been misunderstood
(Misunderstood)
Oh, I'm in my second childhood, oh

It's hard to act my age now, I'm goin' through that stage now
You make me feel good, you make me feel good
Now, I don't feel so grown up 'cause every time you phone up
You make me feel good, you make me feel good

Gonna love my life away
I wish I could
(I wish I could)
Girl, you're leadin' me astray
I've been misunderstood
(Misunderstood)

Oh, I'm in my second childhood
Oh, I'm in my second childhood, yeah, yeah
I'm in my second childhood, oh
