I used to be Juanita's old boyfriend We sure gave 'em some stories to tell Now I can't even find her picture I guess I'm finally through foolin' myself
I used to be an ex-bullrider Livin' on the edge of life itself Now I can't even find my buckle Looks like I'm finally through foolin' myself
[Chorus]
Hang on just as long as you can Get up whenever you fall Shake it off, Boys, and go 'round again Don't be hangin' your life on the wall
I used to be forever chasin' firetrucks I sure could raise me some hell I don't know why I like to do that kinda stuff I guess I wasn't through foolin' myself
I used to have a smokin' little fastball I sure could show 'em some stuff Now I can't even make it on the church team anymore I guess I'm finally through foolin' myself
[Chorus Twice]
Shake it off, Boys, and go 'round again Don't be hangin' your life on the wall.
