Philosophy Lyrics

Told ya' darlin'
all along,
I was right and you were wrong.
A-pleasin' you,
so hard to do.
Cried all night long,
was beatin' through.
Can't sow wild oats
'spect to gather corn.
Can't take right
and make it wrong.
Told ya' darlin',
long time ago,
you gotta reap
what you sow, and what you sow, yeah,
is gonna make you weep,
a-some day,
a-some day,
a-some day.
Yeah, what you sow, yeah,
's gonna make you weep.
Tried to keep you
satisfied;
broke my heart,
crushed my pride.
It's all over now,
but all I see
is a lonely road
and a memory of
daily walkin'
and talkin'
'bout Joanne.
Can't ya' see,
I said, daily walkin'
and talkin'.
Can't sow wild oats
'spect to gather corn.
Can't take right
and make it wrong.
I told ya' darlin',
long time ago,
you gotta reap
what you sow, and what you sow, yeah,
gonna make you weep,
a-some day,
a-some day,
some day.
Yeah, what you sow, yeah,
gonna make you weep,
a-some days.
