Eddy Arnold - There's Been a Change in Me lyrics

When I was very young my mother often said
I was a bashful kid my face was always red
I was afraid of girls but now you see
Lordy Lord there's been a change in me
Then at the age of twelve I
Went to my first dance
We played so kissin' games and
Then I got the chance
To learn about how nice a kiss to be
You know there was a change in me

I started notice in the little girl next door
I walked her home from school
I never did before
I even carved her name upon a tree oh
Boy there was a change in me
I took the slick enough my
Hair were lots of clew
And I would shine my shoes
And look in mirrors too
Until my mother said why son it's doom ain't
It there's been a change in you

As the years went by I surely get around
Why I was number one bout
All the girls in town
I had a different date most every night
(whistle) there was a change alright
But now I've met a gal
Who stole my heart away
I'm gonna marry her and settle down someday
And if I'm through to her then I'll agree
Ha ha there's been a change in me
