My friends told me all about it
They said I had to see for myself
But I never really cared that
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
See, I used to be such a bad, bad boy
And good times were my toy,
boy 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
Hey
And she's the one,
treats me good enough
So I gave it up when I fell in love
Honey, I thought I was justified to
Only see the world through my eyes
And that it was a waste of time
talking '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
See, I used to be such a bad, bad boy
And good times were my toy, boy 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
Yeah
And she's the one,
treats me good enough
So I gave it up when I fell in love
And now every night I dream
about you and our new love
And all of my friends say I'm
oh such a different guy
An d they wonder, hey, yeah

Hey, yeah

I gave it up when I found that girl

So I gave it up when I fell in love
See, I used to be such a bad,
