Darlin'

Lyrics

Oh, lately I'm a man on the move
 I'm a young soul with something to prove
 At that age now, to find something real
 Using planes, trains, and automobiles
 It's a long way 'cross the U.S.A.
 But this day is mine for the takin'
 Breakin' the laws, 'cause they're all so obsurd
 I smoke the best herb, the more I travel Westwards
 All the folks, they all got different handshakes
 On my way through landslides and earthquakes
 Funny how you learn the different rules of a new place
 Funny how your life can fit inside of a suitcase
 All I need is just a round of applaus
 To remind me why I left my life behind me
 I'm makin' money for the rhymes I write
 And now the hunnies wanna' hold me tight
 But darlin', can't you see, can't you see?
 I will never be the man, never be the man you dreamed of (oh, no, no, no)
 Darlin', can't you see, can't you see?
 I will never be the man, never be the man you dreamed of
 She's looking for a knight in shining armor
 A charmer, to guard from those who'd harm her
 I ain't the one who's gonna' deal with the hassle
 Ain't the type of knight who spends his time in the castle
 Call me selfhish, ha, you may be true
 But I been lookin' out for something new
 'Cause the same bar, in the same part of town
 Drinkin' over and over again could bring a man down (oh)
 I've been traveling from state to state
 Still looking for people who can relate
 In hot persuit of a girl to ease my tension
 Pretty little something cravin' more than attention
 Darlin', can't you see, can't you see?
 I will never be the man, never be the man you dreamed of (oh, no, no, no)
 Darlin', can't you see, can't you see?
 I will never be the man, never be the man you dreamed of
 Nothing's ever gonna' stand in my way
 The highway is all that provides me
 With a thought that there is something waiting
 Strong enough to keep a heart from aching
 If Love is in the air that I ain't breathing
 Life is short, and I'm in search of meanin'
 The race is won, and it is slow and steady [[may be wrong]]
 Enough already, Hell I'm far from good and ready
 We could get together for a one night stand
 'Cause girl I can love you better than any man could
 One thing for sure, you know I gotta' leave town
 Well, we could mess around, we could mess around
 Darlin', can't you see, can't you see?
 I will never be the man, never be the man you dreamed of (oh, no, no, no)
 Darlin', can't you see, can't you see?
 I will never be the man, never be the man you dreamed of (oh, no, no)
