Earl Scruggs - Before I Met You lyrics

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
