Artist/Band: Dolly Parton
Lyrics for Song: You're the One That Taught Me
Lyrics for Album: Love Is Like a Butterfly [1975]



(Dolly Parton)



You were not content with me when I was like I used to be

I was too old-fashioned, too simple and too plain

And so you took this country girl, taught me all about the world

Yes, you're the one that taught me how to swing.



I used to never drink or smoke, I'd even blush at dirty jokes

I never wanted to take part in all those worldly games

But you dressed me up in sexy clothes, took me where the swingers go

Yes, you're the one that taught me how to swing.



But you don't want me swingin' now, but you're the one that taught me how

It was you that wanted me to change

I'm only what you made of me - your mistake was changin' me

Yes, you're the one that taught me how to swing.



You want me like I was before, but I'm not like that anymore

This plain old simple country girl won't ever be the same

So don't expect me to go back 'cause it's a bit too late for that

An' you're the one that taught me how to swing.



But you don't want me swingin' now, but you're the one that taught me how

It was you that wanted me to change

And I'm only what you made of me - your mistake was changin' me

And, you're the one that taught me how to swing.



Yes, you're the one that taught me how to swing

Taught me how to swing...
