did you ever have to make up your mind
you pick up on one and leave the other behind
it’s not often easy and not often kind
did you ever have to make up your mind
did you ever have to finally decide
and say yes to one and let the other one ride
there’s so many changes and tears you must hide
did you ever have to finally decide
sometimes there’s one with deep blue eyes cute as a bunny
with hair down to here and plenty of money
and just when you think she’s that one in the world
your heart gets stolen by some mousy little girl
and then you know you better make up your mind
and pick up on one and leave the other behind
it’s not often easy and not often kind
did you ever have to make up your mind
break
sometimes you really dig a girl the moment you kiss her
and then you get distracted by her older sister
when in walks her father and takes you a line
and says better go home son and make up your mind
4
then you bet you’d better finally decide
and say yes to one and let the other one ride
there’s so many changes and tears you must hide
did you ever have to finally decide
