(Rod Stewart). I was born and raised the only son of a lawyer. till I was approximately the age of four or perhaps five. I lost both my mother and my father. Killed in a fire way up on the fourteenth floor. Struck down by the time I was ten by an illness. which robbed me of the sight of the morning sun. And that ain't all. A homeless child for the next five years. with my dog Clown by my side and my only friend. Yeah yeah yeah.. I fought my way through school. Sound and touch the thing on which I could depend. And you know what the the the kids. down my street weren't too playful. And right then it seemed like the whole world picked on me. And ah yeah. I worked my fingers to the bone. Stretchin' hide for a boot man in Jersey Town. But then but then I lost the last thing I had. When fate reared its ugly head and took my dog Clown. I wandered way up north found a girl that loved like a woman. Sixteen years old and felt like a woman. But but but but but what I'm trying to say is. God please don't take her away from me. I lost everything that I ever had. you kicked my name into the dirt. Tread my name into the dirt yeah. I lost everything that I ever had. you kicked my name into the dirt. What could I do. I never knew how much love could hurt me. But it never ever come my way before. No no no no no. I never knew how much love could hurt me. Good God it ain't never come my way before. Oh but but you know what I'm trying to say. really what I'm trying to say is. God please don't take her away from me. Ah turn it down. I lost everything that I ever had. you kicked my name into the dirt. You got a lotta lotta lost everything. that I ever had ever had.
