- Songwriters: David Alexander Courtney, Leo Sayer
I paid all my dues so I picked up my shoes
I got up and walked away, oh, I was just a boy
I didn't know how to play I've worked hard and failed
Now all I can say is I threw it all away
Oh, I was just a boy, giving it all away
Sail away, sail away, ooh, well, I know better now
I know better now, giving it all away
Oh, oh, I now better now, I know better now
I've given it all away, went out in the world
Too much for my nerves, well, only myself to blame
Oh, I was just a boy, giving it all away
I've done all I can now it's out of my hands
Stand on my head and say, I was just a boy
Giving it all away, sail away, yeah, sail away
Oh, well I know better now, I know better now
Giving it all away, oh oh, yeah, I now better now,
I know better now, giving it all away
Ooh, I know better now, I know better now
I've given it all away, just a boy
Giving it all away, just a boy
Giving it all away, I was just a boy
Giving it all away, just a boy
