I thought I had seen pretty girls in my time but that was before I met you
I never saw one that I wanted for mine but that was before I met you I thought I was swingin' the world by the tail, I thought I could never be blue
I thought I'd been kissed and I thought I'd been loved
But that was before I met you I wanted to ramble and always be free but that was before I met you
I said that no woman could ever hold me but that was before I met you I thought I was swingin' the world by the tail, I thought I could never be blue
I thought I'd been kissed and I thought I'd been loved
But that was before I met you They tell me I must reap just what I have sown but darlin' I hope it's not true
For once I made plans about living alone but that was before I met you I thought I was swingin' the world by the tail, I thought I could never be blue
I thought I'd been kissed and I thought I'd been loved
But that was before I met you
But that was before I met you
