That Was Before I Met You - Charley Pride

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 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

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 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

but darlin' I hope it's not true
For once I made plans about living alone

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
But that was before I met you
