VERSE He’s sixteen, a dozen roses in his hand Knocks on the front door, locks eyes with her old man Says have her home by ten and you might see her again
Sittin’ on the front porch around nine forty-five And all he can think about is kissin’ her goodnight Finally made up his mind But she turned when he tried
CHORUS Yeah sometimes a boy don’t get the girl Don’t work out like he planned Yeah the front door slams and he’s left standin’ All alone in this old world
VERSE Felt like a man lookin’ for a ring all by himself Never thought he’d ever have to want someone else Came home, turned on the light Never seen her cry No note goodbye Just a spare key on a shelf
CHORUS Oh sometimes a boy don’t get the girl Don’t work out like he planned Yeah the front door slams and he’s left standin’ All alone in this old world
Thought he’d done it all just right, a gentleman polite But sometimes There ain’t no reason why The boy don’t get the girl
BRIDGE Well I know you think you love that girl But someday you’ll find out waitin’ on the right one Ain’t the worst thing in the world
Sometimes a boy don’t get the girl So he can turn into a man and Find the woman of his dreams Learn how to do it all just right Standin’ side by side and Finally understand why , sometimes It ain’t the end of the world When the boy don’t get the girl When the boy don’t get the girl
REFRAIN He’s forty-five tellin’ his little girl “be nice to this young man” Doorbell rings, he’s sixteen, a dozen roses in his hands.Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
