| I thought I'd 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 its tail | |
| I thought I could never be blue | |
| I thought I'd been kissed and I thought I'd been loved | |
| That was before I met you | |
| I wanted to ramble and always be free | |
| That was before I met you | |
| I never saw one that could ever hold me | |
| That was before I met you | |
| They say a man must reap what he's sown | |
| Darlin', I hope that's not true | |
| For once I made plans of living alone | |
| But that was before I met you |
