Age

(álbum: Jerry Reed Sings Jim Croce - 1980)

I've been up and down around and around and back again
I've been so many places I can't remember where or when
And my only boss was a clock on the wall and my only friend
Never really was a friend at all

I've traded love for pennies I've sold my soul for less
Lost my deals in that long tunnel of time
I've turned inside out around about and back and then
Found myself right back where I started again

Once I had myself a million now I only got a dime
But the difference don't seem quite so bad today
Now with a nickel or a million I was searching all the time
For something that I'd never lost or left behind

I've traded love for pennies I sold my soul for less...
[ guitar ]
Now I'm in my second circle and I'm heading for the top
And I've learned a lot of things along the way
I'll be careful while I'm climbing cause it hurts a lot to drop
And when you're down nobody gives a damn anyway

I've traded love for pennies I sold my soul for less...
