Peter Pan James McMurtry

[Verse 1]
Beer cans to the ceiling
Ashtray on the floor
Laundry on the sofa
Need I say more?
I walked out with my hair wet
I caught one awful cold
Should've been more careful
Should'a done like I was told
I can't believe it
How could it be?
Just like you said could happen
So it did to me
Just when I might have seen the light of day
I crossed my eyes 'til they stayed that way

[Chorus]
I keep my distance as best I can
Livin' out my time here in Never Never Land
And I can't grow up
'Cause I'm too old now
I guess I really did it this time Mom

[Verse 2]
The boogie man came calling
I said I wasn't home
He didn't believe me
He wasn't alone
He had my number
He got my goat
He bought my ticket
He paid off my note
And he left in a hurry
Said he couldn't stay
I guess he had his reasons
I'm not the one to say
