Lyrics for Song: Doin' What I Did
Lyrics for Album: Reprise Please Baby: The Warner Bros. Years [2002]
Hey, when C.C. Rider was just a snot-nosed kid
I was already known for doin' what I did
The women all screamed as I walked by
My daddy would curse me
And my momma'd start to cry
'Cause I was known, yeah, for doin' what I did
My reputation was strong, hey, for doing what I did
It ain't no way they could ever get kissed
'Cause I was just too well known for doin' what I did
Hey, my momma called the preacher,
Called up everyone she knew
All of her friends no good and you know who
When old Casanova was a just love-sick pup
I'd already broke me so many hearts
I could've started me a dump
'Cause I was known, yeah, for doin' what I did
My reputation was strong, hey, for doing what I did
It ain't no way they could ever get kissed
'Cause I was just too well known for doin' what I did
Instrumental
The older boys was teasin' me on my first day of school
Then finally the teachers let me break all the rules
The press heard about it tried to put me in the news
They didn't have no comment for fear of what they'd lose
'Cause I was known, yeah, for doin' what I did
My reputation was strong, hey, for doing what I did
It ain't no way they could ever get kissed
'Cause I was just too well known for doin' what I did
Ahh, it was like I was strong, since I was born
Man, I stood alone
Yeah, Baby, I was strong
Doin' what I did
Doin' what I did
Ah, Doin' what I did
Hey, when old C.C. Rider was a snot-nosed kid
I was already know, baby, for doin' what I did
When little Casanova was a snot-nosed punk,
I'd already broke so many hearts
I could've started me a dump
I was known, for doin' what I did
My reputation was strong, yeah, for doin' what I did
All the time I was know, yeah, for doin' what I did...
