I Love You Better

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I one went with a belly dancer (Lum do dee ally day)

One around I didn't stand a chance a (Lum do dee ally day)

I, I, I love you better

I, I, I love you better

Then I went with a gospel singer (Lum do dee ally day)

She tried to wrap me around her finger, now (Lum do dee ally day)

But I say

I, I, I love you better

I, I, I love you better

Ha, ha, ha, lum do dee ally day.

Ha, ha, ha, lum do dee ally day.

I once went with a history teacher (Lum do dee ally day)

I really tried but I couldn't reach her (Lum do dee ally day)

I, I, I love you better

I, I, I love you better

Well, let me tell you now

I, I, I love you better

I, I, I love you better

Ha, ha, ha, lum do dee ally day

Ha, ha, ha, lum do dee ally day

There were some that I can't remember (Lum do dee ally day)

Think I went with Miss November (Lum do dee ally day)

But I say

I, I, I love you better

I, I, I love you better.
