Before I Met You - Stonewall Jackson

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

Well, 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 that’s not true

'Coz once I made plans about livin' alone

That was before I met you

I thought I was swingin' the world by the tail

I thought I could never be blue

And I thought I’d been kissed and I thought I’d been loved

But that was before I met you
