Musical: State Fair
Song: Man I Used to Be
Vivian: you've changed bub you've changed a lot.
Jeanne: and the gang you used to go with all concur.
You've changed bub Vivian: you're not yourself.
Both: if this is yourself, you're not the man you were
Pat: The man i used to be a happy man was he.
and aimless as a leaf in a gale.
J&V: whatever has become of that light hearted bum who though he had the world by the tail.
Pat: The man i used to be, his life was gay and free and aimless as a cloud in the sky.
he thought he knew the game
then along came a dame who turned him into some other guy.
I've got ambition now i'm on a mission now.
I aim to reach the top of the tree.
That other fly by night who flew so high by night.
has vanished like a sail on the sea.
and i'll never find that easy living easy taking easy giving fellow that i used to call me.
ALL: you can never find the man you used to be.
Pat: The man i used to be would go to bed at three or four a.m. J:or seven
J&V:or nine! and when his weary head wasn't near any bed a table or a chair would
be fine!
Pat: a man without a goal a sort of friendly soul,
he liked to play the role of a host. to any thirsty pal
J&V: or a casual gal who'd stay and cook his coffee and toast.
HE was a ne'er do well who wouldn't dare do well he never saw the top of a tree.
but kind of sad i am to see the cad i am dissolving like a sail on
the sea. and i'll never find that fatalistic free
and easy egotistic optimist who used to be me.
you can never find the man you used to be.
