HARRY CONNICK, JR. - You Didn't Know Me When lyrics

rate me

There's a few things I haven't told you

And before you hear them from someone else

To clear up misconceptions, I'd rather tell you myself

There was a time I rode a roller coaster from Coney Island to Key West

I held on with one finger, so the other ten could rest

It may be hard to believe, hard to comprehend

But baby, you didn't know me when

I played third chair trombone in an out-of-work polka band

We looked for gigs on ships, in countries that had no land

It may be hard to believe we hit the top ten

But baby, you didn't know me when

If you want a resume I'll put it in writing

It's only good for a day and the contents are frightening

I gave long winded speeches and I was a head of state

I wrote an endless novel called, 'See Jane Love And Hate'

It may be hard to believe, I'm reticent

But baby, you didn't know me when

If you want a resume I'll put it in writing

It's only good for a day and the contents are frightening

I gave long winded speeches and I was a head of state

I wrote an endless novel called, 'See Jane Love And Hate'

It may be hard to believe, I'm reticent

But baby, baby, baby you didn't know me when
