Before I Met You

C.Seitz, J.Lewis, E.Rader

I thought I had seen pretty girl 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 would 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 to me
That was before I met you

* Refrain

They tell me I must reap just what I have sown
Darling I hope that's not true once I made plans
About living alone
That was before I met you

* Refrain

FLATT & SCRUGGS and the Foggy Mountain Boys
