Careful Man
CAREFUL MAN Words and music by Jim Croce I don't gamble, I don't fight I don't be hangin' in the bars at night Yeah I used to be a fighter But now I am a wiser man I don't drink much, I don't smoke I don't be hardly mess around with no dope Yeah I used to be a problem But now I am a careful man CHORUS: But if you used to want to see a commotion You should have seen the man that I used to be I was trouble in perpetual motion Trouble with a capital "T" Stayin' out late, havin' fun And shot off every single shot in my gun Yeah I used to be a lover But now I am an older man (REPEAT CHORUS) (REPEAT LAST VERSE, New last line:) Yeah I used to be a terror but now I am a tired man
