[Verse 1]
I've held it all inward
Lord knows I've tried
It's an awful awakenin'
In a country boy's life
To look in the mirror
In total surprise
At the hair on your shoulders
And the age in your eyes
[Chorus]
Amanda, light of my life
Fate should've made you a gentleman's wife
Amanda, light of my life
Fate should've made you a gentleman's wife
[Verse 2]
There's a measure of people
That don't understand
The pleasures of life
In a hillbilly band
I got my first guitar
When I was fourteen
Now I'm over thirty
And still wearing jeans
[Chorus]
Amanda, light of my life
Fate should've made you a gentleman's wife
Amanda, light of my life
Fate should've made you a gentleman's wife
