I thought I had seen pretty girls in my time

That was before I met you

I never saw one that I wanted for mine

That was before I met you

I thought I was swinging 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 thought I'd stay single always be free

But that was before I met you

And I said that no sweet thang could ever hold me

But that was before I met you

I thought I was swinging 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 thought I was swinging 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

That was before I met you
