Roger Daltrey – Giving it all away 1973

I paid all my dues so I picked up my shoes,
I got up and walked away.
Oh, I was just a boy,
I didn’t know how to play.

Worked hard and failed
now all I can say is
I threw it all away.

Oh, I was just a boy
giving it all away
sail away, sail away

Ooh, I know better now,
I know better now
giving it all away

Ooh, I know better now,
I know better now
I’ve given it all away

Went out in the world
too much for my nerves
only myself to blame.

Oh, I was just a boy
nobody else to blame
I’ve done all I can,
now it’s out of my hands
stand on my head and say

Oh, I was just a boy
giving it all away
sail away, sail away,

Ooh, I know better now,
I know better now
giving it all away

Ooh, I know better now,
I know better now
given it all away

Ooh yeah, I know better now,
I know better now
giving it all away

Ooh yeah, I know better now,
I know better now
given it all away

Just a boy,
given it all away
I was just a boy,
given it all away

Just a boy,
given it all away
I was just a boy
