Changin’ Times Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When I was young, I used to understand
That when you're with a girl, you gotta act like a man
Mama told me that's the way it should be
And I know my mama never lied to me
I might be a victim of the changin' times
'Cause when I'm with you, I just can't make up my mind
[Verse 2]
Since I met you, don't know right from wrong
Somebody tell me just what's goin' on
Just can't get myself thinkin' straight
I'm all shook up, I'm in a terrible state
Sometimes I think I got it all figured out
Then you do something new and it just knocks me right out
[Chorus 1]
Someday, baby, I'm going to have to make a stand
The way that you treat me, baby
Don't make me feel too much like a man
And baby, baby, the changes you're goin' through
You're drivin' me half-crazy
Can't make up my mind what to do about you
[Verse 3]
Tellin' myself that time is on my side
You're gettin' this feelin' that my mind's on the slide
Dumped on the floor, I feel I'm trapped in a spin
Don't know how to end, can't think of where to begin
She don't care, I know she don't even try
But when she turns it on, you know, she gets me so high
When I was young, I used to understand
That when you're with a girl, you gotta act like a man
Mama told me that's the way it should be
And I know my mama never lied to me
I might be a victim of the changin' times
'Cause when I'm with you, I just can't make up my mind
[Verse 2]
Since I met you, don't know right from wrong
Somebody tell me just what's goin' on
Just can't get myself thinkin' straight
I'm all shook up, I'm in a terrible state
Sometimes I think I got it all figured out
Then you do something new and it just knocks me right out
[Chorus 1]
Someday, baby, I'm going to have to make a stand
The way that you treat me, baby
Don't make me feel too much like a man
And baby, baby, the changes you're goin' through
You're drivin' me half-crazy
Can't make up my mind what to do about you
[Verse 3]
Tellin' myself that time is on my side
You're gettin' this feelin' that my mind's on the slide
Dumped on the floor, I feel I'm trapped in a spin
Don't know how to end, can't think of where to begin
She don't care, I know she don't even try
But when she turns it on, you know, she gets me so high
[Chorus 2]
She's a lady that's making my life a sin
You know that I'm runnin' in a losin' race
There ain't no way I can win
Baby, baby, the changes you're goin' through
They're drivin' me half crazy
Can't make up my mind what to do about you
She's a lady that's making my life a sin
You know that I'm runnin' in a losin' race
There ain't no way I can win
Baby, baby, the changes you're goin' through
They're drivin' me half crazy
Can't make up my mind what to do about you
