[00:00.93][Verse 1]
[00:09.78]I've held it all inward
[00:13.14]Lord knows I've tried
[00:17.73]It's an awful awakenin'
[00:21.33]In a country boy's life
[00:26.22]To look in the mirror
[00:29.40]In total surprise
[00:34.02]At the hair on your shoulders
[00:37.65]And the age in your eyes
[00:40.77][Chorus]
[00:42.33]Amanda, light of my life
[00:51.03]Fate should've made you  a gentleman's wife
[00:58.80]Amanda, light of my life
[01:07.53]Fate should've made you  a gentleman's wife
[01:13.71][Verse 2]
[01:31.74]There's a measure of people
[01:35.40]That  don't understand
[01:40.29]The pleasures of life
[01:43.50]In a hillbilly band
[01:48.42]I got my first guitar
[01:51.66]When I was fourteen
[01:56.19]Now I'm over thirty
[01:59.85]And still wearing jeans
[02:02.88][Chorus]
[02:04.38]Amanda, light of my life
[02:12.93]Fate should've made you  a gentleman's wife
[02:20.58]Amanda, light of my life
[02:29.19]Fate should've made you  a gentleman's wife
