J.J. Cale - Former Me lyrics
[J.J. Cale - Former Me lyrics]
He was lighter on his feet
Just as quick as a sparrow
That was the former me
Since I been here for so long now
Now I think that I can see
Acquaint myself with that fellow
Who was the former me
Those days have been lost in my mind
A fancy man, I won't deny
When I think about it nowadays
From the dawn to the sunset of my life
It's a truth I could not see
Not till later did I recognize the guy
It was the former me
Those days have been 'bossed in my mind
Fancy man, I won't deny
When I think about it nowadays
Since I been here for so long now
Now I think that I can see
Acquaint myself with that fellow
Who was the former me
Yes, I used to know a fellow
He was lighter on his feet
Just as quick as a sparrow
