Shel Silverstein Lyrics
I Once Knew a Woman

Well now I once knew a woman listen while I tell
you all about her yeah And the first time I seen
her I knew I couldn't live without her Well now
she swore she'd love me all her life and I knew
I'd do the same God damn but I don't even remember
her name I don't remember her name

Well now I once knew a woman and oh listen while
I'm tellin' it to ya yeah She had big brown eyes
the kind that could look right through ya Now that
she looked in my soul with those big brown eyes
Got a feelin' like I never knew hey come to think
of it those eyes were blue I think those eyes were
blue

Well now you end one love then onto another never
thinkin' back at the past one Never stop to think
oh brother that the next one gonna be just like
the last one I once knew a woman listen while I
tell you my story She had a heart like the world
her lips like a morning glory yeah Well I knew at
last I met my fate and I'm bound to settle down
Hey I wonder if she's still in town

Yeah I once knew a woman and listen while I tell
you some more boys Hey come to think of it I think
I told bout her before boys Well she is the one
who gets my heart she sets my heart aflame Yeah I
still don't remember her name Hmm come to think of
it those eyes were blue or were they green Hmm I
wonder if she's still around hmm you know I'm
really not to blame Oh I still don't remember her
name
