Had a girl in my hometown
Sorry now that I put her down
Could've lived so happily
Well, shame on me

Why, oh why did I go away?
Sorry now that I didn't stay
I still think how it used to be
Well, shame on me

What a fool I must have been
Then again, I was so young
How was I supposed to know
How it feels to get stung?

Going back to my hometown-
Find the girl that I put down
I'm going to ask her to marry me
But if I bleed,
Oh, shame on me

What a fool I must have been
Then again, I was so young
How was I supposed to know
How it feels to get stung?

Going back to my hometown-
Find the girl that I put down
I'm going to ask her to marry me
But if I bleed,
Oh, shame on me
Shame on me
Shame on me
W-ow! Shame on me Yeah!
Shame onme
