madeleine peyroux - 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 h-ll?
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 h-ll?

was i drunk?
was he handsome?
did momma give me h-ll?
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 h-ll?”
