Lyrics Second Childhood - Foghat
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,
fhe
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
(been
misunderstood)
Oh
oh,
I'm
in
my
second
childhood,
oh
oh.
Back
on
the
breadline,
seemed
like
a
long
time,
the
waiting
was
all
in
vain.
I
spent
my
vacation
down
at
the
station,
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
(been
misunderstood)
Oh
oh,
I'm
in
my
second
childhood,
oh
oh.
It's
hard
to
act
my
age
now,
I′m
going
through
that
stage
now.
You
make
me
feel
good
- you
make
me
feel
good.
Now
I
don′t
feel
so
grown
up,
'cause
everytime
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
(been
misunderstood)
Oh
oh,
I'm
in
my
second
childhood,
Oh
oh,
I′m
in
my
second
childhood,
Yea-ee-ya,
I'm
in
my
second
childhood,
whoa
oh.
