Well, she said when she left that a change might do me good
So i took her advice and i did the best i could
I've gone from this to that ??til i'm nothing like i used to be
In fact, everyone says i'm a totally different me
Got a new life but i still like the old one better
It's nice but it just won't ever quite be the same
I have everything a man would want but i can't forget her
Oh, i got a new life but i still like the old one better
I pulled up my roots in the country and i moved uptown
Went from a slower pace to running with a faster crowd
I found a sweet young girl to replace all the love we knew
But i guess there's just some things you can't improve
Got a new life but i still like the old one better
It's nice but it just won't ever quite be the same
I have everything a man could want but i can't forget her
Oh, i got a new life but i still like the old one better
I have everything a man would want but i can't forget her
Oh, i got a new life but i still like the old one better
Oh, i got a new life but i still like the old one better
Yeah, i got a new life but i still like the old one better
