I was a boy scout in st. mary's troop
I had my own patrol
I had a necktie and a monkey suit
'til i heard rock and roll.
And i was going into something that was feelin' good
It was something i could understand
I was going into something, it was feeling free
I was singing like a reborn man.
I was a knight of st. columba's
I used to lie a lot
I had a bible and a rosary
And one day i forgot.
And i was going into something that was feelin' good
It was something i could understand
I was going into something, it was feeling free
I was singing like a reborn man.
I sold the shoes, i had a great career
Down at the main street store
'til i decided i should disappear
'til i walked out the door.
And i was going into something that was feelin' good
It was something i could understand
I was going into something, it was feeling free
I was singing like a reborn man (yeah).
