He was just a child, when she left him there alone

Father never forgave him, for making mother leave

"You could up and die, boy, it wouldn't bother me"

Sent him off to school, somewhere up north

Way too many rules to follow, didn't have a choice

He said, "I'm afraid that no one can calm me down

And I'm just scared that no one will know how

To put me in my place

Oh to put me in my place

To put me in my place

To put me in my place

Where do I belong?"


He's all grown up, got a wife of his own

But he started a family now he's never home

She says, "How am I suppose to love, you're always out on the town

How's your daughter gonna know you if you won't come around?"

Goes to tuck her in, he can never see

And she turns to him, but it was only me


She says, "I'm afraid that no one can calm me down"

He said, "Baby I can't believe this, I think we finally found out how

To put me in my place

Oh to put me in my place

Oh won't you just put me in my place

Come on and put me in my place

Where we belong"
