Из альбома: A Man Like Me: The Early Years of Roger Miller
Wrapped in the arms of the wrong kind of girl
her and the jukebox are my only whirl
what could have happened to the big plans l had
my life is so wasted on things cheap and bad
l once had ambition, set out to become
the world's greatest something, but what have l done
l'm a prize winning nothing, no good to the world
just wrapped in the arms of the wrong kind of girl
l used to dream of the wealth l would gain
by many great deeds l would gather my fame
but you can't live on dreams, and soon came a time
when wealth and success seemed to leave me behind
(repeat chorus)
