Well I've done things I'm not proud of

Broken all the rules of lve

Sentenced five and doin' ten once again

Of all the damage done

It would've been easy just to run

But I stood by and showed my hand like a man

CHORUS:

And I've paid the price for some doghouse rights

Better wake up (wake up)

Let me back in or let me go

Once I was king, kept a black book on a string

But that's changed and rightful too

Since I met you

Oh a brand new man that's what you want (that's
what you want)

That's what I am

And baby from this day on (this day on)

I won't smoke or drink or stay out late

You can tell all my friends I moved away

Wake up (wake up) let this fool back in or let me
go

Wake up, let this fool back in or let me go.
