So, I put on my boots,
walk out that door.

Recall how I felt
in 1974.

She told me,
"We gonna have a baby".

In that moment
the girl I loved
became a lady.

Then they told us,
we too young to
have a child.

Years and miles
long later
she's long gone
and I'm still livin
free and wild.

Now miles and years
long later
I have my doubts
I have my fears.

I can't forget
I agreed to end
the life of my child.

So I take off my boots
leave them on the floor.

Cry myself to sleep
thinkin bout 1974.
