Baby, when I first laid eyes on you, I swore I'd do anything
Let ya clean me up, fix me up, just to get you to wear my wedding ring
Now I'm having second thoughts and I'm writing you this letter
I'm scared to tell you to your face that I like the old me better

I liked the old me better, I was a lot more fun
I liked the old me better, I didn't take crap from anyone
Well I'd sleep all day, party all night
Do whatever I wanted whenever I liked
Baby, you made me a brand new man, but I like the old me better

Don't get me wrong, you ain't that bad and I appreciate your work
I don't drink as much, swear as much, you even made me go to church
I ain't done much talking since the day we got together
I'm a different man because of you, but I like the old me better

I liked the old me better, I was a lot more fun
I liked the old me better, I didn't take crap from anyone
Well I'd sleep all day, party all night
Do whatever I wanted whenever I liked
Baby, you made me a brand new man, but I like the old me better

No doubt about it, you're the only one
And I know you really love the man that I've become

Girl, I've got to say you're the only one that I've ever loved
You and I are a good fit, like a hand and glove
But now I'm sitting here looking back, wearing this stupid sweater
Truth be told I've got to say I like the old me better

I liked the old me better, I was a lot more fun
I liked the old me better, I didn't take crap from anyone
Well I'd sleep all day, party all night
Do whatever I wanted whenever I liked
Baby, you made me a brand new man, but I like the old me better
Girl, you made me a brand new man, but I like the old me better

I like the old me better
I like the old me better
I like the old me better
I like the old me better
I'm gonna tell you to your face
I'm gonna tell you to your face
I'm gonna tell you to your face
I'm gonna tell you to your face (I like the old me better)
I want dancing all night long
I'm gonna tell you to your face
I want dancing all night long
