was i?

Lyrics

sweet young thing of sixteen, thought i'd step out one night, i longed to get the thrilling life i've missed, i met a youth, a bit uncouth, although he seemed alright, i knew him by the moment when we kissed, then i got home, next day with a swollen head, my girlfriend asked if i'd had fun i said, "was i drunk?, was he handsome?, did momma give me hell?, did i get a thrill?, am i full of quiver?, was he rough?, did i care?, am i glad i fell?, every time i think of him do i shiver?, was he hot?, and was i?, and would he stand for maybe?, he would not?, did i lie?, does he still think i'm a baby?, if i was, am i still?, do i care?, don't be silly, was i drunk?, was he handsome?, and did momma give me hell?, was i drunk?, was he handsome?, did momma give me hell?, with his hands loose as no refusin', did he fight?, was i blue?, almost shamed to tell, and i don't know yet the system he was usin', well i said, stop, please, behave!, well what's the use of breathin'?, he said, give, so i gave, after all, what was i savin'?, am i glad?, holy gee, have i had fun, you're askin' me?, was i drunk?, was he handsome?, and did momma give me hell?"
