The Old You

words and music by John Eddie

la den da da da
la den da da da
la den da da um da da da
la da da

You gotta job that pays good money
Well and you patched things up at home
You go to church most every Sunday
And you never have to sleep alone
You're wearin new rags baby
you got me feelin used

Chorus:
I like the old you when you had problems
I like the old you when you were you
I like the old you when you were drowning baby
You used to be a sweet sweet wreck

la den da da da
la den da da da

Ya say the new life that you're living
It puts to shame the one we knew
And now you tell me I'm forgiven
Oh honey ain't that big of you
Well I'm not sorry baby for the hell I put you through

Chorus

la den da da da
la den da da da
la den da da um da da da
la da da

You leave me behind
You tell me everything's fine
When you know damn well
its a lie
its a lie
its a lie

You don't go to bed at sunrise
You don't wake up next to me
And some stranger stole your pretty eyes
And she don't like what she sees
Well you were wild once baby
and I was wild in love with you

I like the old you when you had problems
I like the old you when you were you
I like the old you when you were drowning baby
I like the old you when you had problems
I like the old you when you were you
I like the old you when you were drowning baby
You used to be a sweet sweet wreck

la den da da da
la den da da da
la den da da um da da da
la da da
la den da da da
la den da da da
la den da da um da da da da
