"But I Dropped It" lyrics

But I Dropped It

I was a man
With a world in his hand
But I dropped it
A world of dreams
A world of plans
But I dropped it

It didn't lay there
Very long
I turned around
And it was gone
He took my girl
He put my world
Right in his pocket

All she wanted
Was my love and understanding
I didn't care enough
I wasn't bear enough
And she got lonely

I was a man
With a world in his hand
But I dropped it
A world of dreams
A world of plans
But I dropped it

And good things don't
Just lay around
Neglected
On the ground
He took my girl
He put my world
Right in his pocket

He took my girl
He put my world
Right in his pocket
