All Saints

I was born on All Saints' Day,
My young life was mapped out,
I was a good boy in school,
I didn't shout out,

I worked hard, I played hard,
And a had a good time,
I was one of life's little angels
Most of the time,

But I had no friends in College,
Lost my long-sight in the books,
The Deans were not helpful,
More like a bunch of crooks,

After four years, I was not bitter,
I had a degree to my name,
But it's been ten years since,
And I'm still seeking my fame,

If there is one thing I've learned,
At the age of thirty-two,
It's life ain't up to me,
And it ain't up to you,

There's a reason I was put here,
Patience will bring it out,
'Cos the the Good Lord foresees,
That his Saints never lose out

In my head, I have the music to, "Amanda," (Waylon Jennings).
