There Once Was A Man lyrics
There once was a ma-an
Who loved a wo-man
She was the one he slew the dragon for
They say that nobody loved as much as he
But me
I love you more
(Tell me!)
And there one was a ma-an
Who loved a wo-man
She was the one he gave his kingdom for
They say that nobody loved as much as he
But me-e
I love you more
My love is a giant, fierce and defiant
But how can I prove it to you?
Ain't got no kingdom, no dragon,
To back up my braggin’
How can I show what I would do?
I only know there once was a ma-an
Who loved a wo-man
She was the one he ate the apple for
They say that nobody loved as much as he
But me-e
I love you more
There once was a wo-man
Who loved a ma-an
He was the one that she took poison for
They say that nobody ever loved as much as she
But me-e
I love you more
(Hm, tell me!)
There once was a wo-man
Who loved a ma-an
He was the one she swam the channel for
They say that nobody ever loved as much as she
But me-e
I love you more
My love’s meteoric
It's merely historic
A whirlwind, a cyclone on wheels
It rocks my whole solar plexus
It’s bigger ‘n’ Texas
I just can’t tell you how it feels
I only know there once was a wo-man
Who loved a ma-an
Loved him enough to cause the Trojan War
They say that nobody ever loved as much as she
But me-e
I love you more more more more!
More than a hangman loves his rope
More than a dope fiend loves his dope
More than an Injun loves his scalp
More than yodeler loves his Alps
More! More! More! More! More! More! More!
There once was a man (There once was a woman)
Who loved a woman (Who loved a man)
She was the one he slew the dragon for (He was the one she drank the poison for)
They say that nobody ever loved as he/she
But Me-ee
I love you more
But me-e-e-e-e
I love you more!!
