5 CHINESE BROTHERS - I Always Knew lyrics

rate me

Paul foglino<br><br>I always knew you were too good for me<br>I always knew you knew it too<br>I did what I could, I knocked on wood, I hoped you understood<br>But I could never measure up to you<br><br>Now it scares me when I hear you talk<br>I know I never had a chance<br>But I'd rather be a nickel on the sidewalk<br>Than a penny in a rich man's pants<br><br>Now you've got someone to take care of you<br>He gives you everything you need<br>All those pretty things, engagement rings, all tied up in strings<br>I only gave you what I got for free<br><br>I always knew you were too good for me<br>That's what you always used to say<br>It's so hard to protect your self respect,<br>In fact that's all I kept<br>And that's the only thing you gave away
