When you came into the room You didn't walk in through the door You didn't steal through the window Neither did you rise up through the floor You're the sweetest thing that ever happened to me Baby, you're the sweetest thing that ever happened to me Ah, your daddy ain't so rich But your mama sure is fine Don't you know he's got a song for you The words keep a-changing all the time
You're the sweetest thing that ever happened to me Honey, you're the sweetest thing that ever happened to me I'm living in a strange new world Things are never gonna be the same I'm a slave to a selfish girl And she don't even know my name! She's the sweetest thing that ever happened to me Sure is the sweetest… mmmm… the sweetest thing that ever happened to me
