I Didn't Know It At The Time

I thought that my first love would be my wife But in junior high She moved away from here And I thought Johnny'd always be my best friend I haven't talked to him In fifteen years Back when I had those fights with my old man I never thought that he'd be an old man And I didn't know all those years ago How the years would go Flyin' by Thought I knew it all but I was wrong And I didn't know I didn't know it at the time I never thought good jobs were hard to find 'Till I let my pride cost me one I never thought my whole life would change 'Till I heard the doctor say I had a son I never really thought that I was lost Until I heard my dyin' mother Sing 'Old Rugged Cross' And I didn't know All those years ago How the years would go Flyin' by Thought I knew it all but I was wrong And I didn't know I didn't know it at the time Oh, I thought I knew it all Oh, but I was wrong And I didn't know I didn't know it at the time I didn't know, didn't know, didn't know I didn't know Oh, I didn't know, ohwww
