[Refrain]
Mm-hmm-hmm
Mm-hmm-hmm
Mm-hmm-hmm-hmm
Mm-hmm-hmm
Mm-hmm-hmm
Mm-hmm-hmm-hmm

[Verse 1]
I was out in the city
I was out in the rain
I was feeling down hearted
I was drinking again

[Refrain]
Mm-hmm-hmm
Mm-hmm-hmm
Mm-hmm-hmm-hmm
Mm-hmm-hmm
Mm-hmm-hmm
Mm-hmm-hmm-hmm

[Verse 2]
I was standing by the bridges
Where the dark water flows
I was talking to a stranger
About times long ago
[Pre-Chorus]
I was young
I was foolish
I was angry
I was vain
I was charming
I was lucky
Tell me how have I changed

[Chorus]
Now I'm out
Oh out of control
Now I'm out
Oh out of control
Oh help me now

[Refrain]
Mm-hmm-hmm
Mm-hmm-hmm
Mm-hmm-hmm-hmm

[Verse 3]
And the girls in the doorway
And the boys in the game
And the drunks and the homeless
They all know me
[Verse 4]
And the police on the corner
Give a nod and a wave
As they point me
To my final destination

[Pre-Chorus]
I was young
I was foolish
I was angry
I was vain
I was charming
I was lucky
Tell me how have I changed

[Chorus]
Now I'm out
Oh out of control
Now I'm out
Oh out of control
Oh help me now

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 5]
In the hotel I'm excited
By the smile on her face
But I wondered
How was time
Going to change her
[Pre-Chorus]
I was young
I was foolish
I was angry
I was vain
I was charming
I was lucky
Tell me how have I changed

[Chorus]
Now I'm out
Oh out of control
Now I'm out
Oh out of control
Oh help me now
