Lyrics

Writers: leo sayer & david courtney

I paid all my dues so I picked up my shoes
I got up and walked away
Oh, I was just a boy
Nobody else to blame..

I've worked hard and failed
Now all I can say is
I threw it all away
Oh, I was just a boy
Giving it all away..

Sail away, sail away
Ooh, I know better now, I know better now
Giving it all away

Ooh, I know better now, I know better now
I've given it all away..

Went out in the world -- too much for my nerves
Only myself to blame
Oh, I was just a boy
Nobody else to blame..

I've done all I can, now it's out of my hands
Stand on my head and say
Oh, I was just a boy
Giving it all away..
