[Verse 1]
My friends told me all about it
They said I had to see for myself
But I never really cared much about love
I thought I'd get by without it
Until I found this one girl
She was so fine
I knew she was the one who could change my mind

[Chorus]
See, I used to be such a bad bad boy
And good times were my toy for joy
And that was all I was thinking of
But I gave it up when I fell in love
I used to know party people around the world
Not anymore, I gave it up when I found that girl
And she's the one treats me good enough
So I gave it up when I fell in love

[Verse 2]
Honey, I thought I was justified
To only see the world through my eyes
And that it was a waste of time talkin' 'bout love
But it only took a little time
To make me change my mind
'Cause when she said goodbye
You know, I really thought I'd never stop crying
[Chorus]
See, I used to be such a bad, bad boy
And good times were my toy for joy
And that was all I was thinking of
But I gave it up when I fell in love
I used to know party people around the world
But not anymore, I gave it up when I found that girl
And she's the one treats me good enough
So I gave it up when I fell in love

[Bridge]
And now every night I dream about you and our new love
All of my friends say I'm such a different guy
And they wonder, hey, yeah yeah, how they wonder

See, she's the one treats me good enough
See, I gave it up when I fell in love
I gave it up (I gave it up)
Ooh wee (Ooh wee)
Sho' did (Sho' did)
Baby, yeah, she's the one treats me good enough
So I gave it up when I fell in love
Honey, hey

I gave it up (I gave it up)
Sho' nuff gave it up (Sho'nuff gave it up)
Yeah yeah, that was all I was thinking of
But I gave it up when I fell in love
I used to know party people around the world
But not anymore, I gave it up when I found that girl
Yeah, and she's the one treats me good enough
So I gave it up when I fell in love
[Chorus]
See, I used to be such a bad, bad boy
And good times were my toy for joy
And that was all I was thinking of
But I gave it up when I fell in love
I used to know party people around the world
Not anymore, I gave it up when I found that girl
And she's the one treats me good enough
So I gave it up when I fell in love
