 Man I loved her sGo

High school days, me and Becky learnin'

What it really means to be in love

Give and take, holdin' back for heaven's sake

Fightin' for a week then makin' up

I said, "Please, Becky won't you marry me?"

Prom night in my car out by the curb

She was so surprised, first she laughed and then she cried

And somewhere in my heart I'm sure I heard

Ring around they rosy, pocket full of dreams and posies

Patty cake a-baker's man, tag you're it and kick the can

Mama flashed the porch light for me, gotta go

Man I loved her so

Bridge

When love is wrong it dies, and that's the way it goes

But when it's right, you know love grows

Laura Jean born in Tennessee

That's a common little miracle I know

But for me and Becky Lynn, she's the dream that started when we

Fell in love so many years ago

Singin'Ring around they rosy, pocket full of dreams and posies

Patty cake a-baker's man, tag you're it and kick the can

I think I hear your mama callin', gotta go

Man I loved her so

NOTES:

*There is a key change after the first chorus (it goes up to A) but I could

never sing it that high, so I've left everything in the key of G, which is

enough of a stretch as it is!
