When I was young and innocent you stole into my heart You taught me things I now repent whenever we're apart You taught me that the world was wide, a bit too wide for me And now I am not satisfied with just a cup of tea. Chorus: I was a good little girl You sent my head in a whirl My poor heart too Oh how you told me the tale You always do I was a good little girl Till I met you. I never stayed out late at night, well, never after ten To men I was indifferent quite until you came and then You took me walking in the park, you talked like Romeo And when you kissed me in the dark, poor me, I did not know. Chorus: So now you buy my frills and frocks, and things I dare not tell Quite frequently I darn your socks and other things as well I know some things I never knew in all my single life You've taught me quite a thing or two since I became your wife.
