Earl Scruggs - Before I Met You lyrics

rate me

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 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

That was before I met you

I said that no woman could ever hold me

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

They tell me I must reap just what I have sown

Darlin', I hope it's not true

For once I made plans of living alone

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
