My Boy - Donovan Woods

Where was my boy tonight again?

Where was my boy tonight again?

My heart overflows

I love him he knows that

Where was my boy back then?

Did you stay in the city last night?

Or did you find a good evening flight

From all the stupid folks stuck in your life

Where was my boy last night?

Half of what you tell me cannot be true

If most of it is I didn’t follow through

See, I promised your mom I’d look out for you

Where was my boy hitherto?

Oh, by the reigns

Half of us sane

Oh, by the reigns

Where was my boy tonight again?

Where was my boy tonight again?

My heart overflows

I love him he knows that

Where was my boy back then?

I was nine when you were ten

You would disappear with Marilynn

I would call and I call again

Where was my boy back then?

Now, what do I tell your mother?

I haven’t seen you in weeks

«I get him on the phone and he hardly speaks»

He says, «Sweet little Donovan, you’re far too meek»

What is this life he seeks?

Oh, by the reigns

Half of us sane

Oh, by the reigns

Where was my boy tonight again?

Where was my boy tonight again?

My heart overflows

I love him he knows that

Where was my boy back then?
