- Didn't Mean A Thing LyricsHey mister why'd you play that song
Until I heard it I was gettin' along
Now why'd you have to take me to that place
Make me think about her smilin' face
How she used to make me laugh out loud
Kiss me in the middle of a downtown crowd
Talk dirty to me on the phone
And then I woke up alone
And it's like water to a drownin' man
An IOU written in sand
Tryin' to beat three aces with a couple of kings
Yeah, a round trip on a runaway train
A handshake from Saddam Husein
Sweet dreams of love and a wedding ring
Didn't mean a thing, it didn't mean a thing, oh, no
Said she was the answer to my prayers
And as she ran her fingers through my hair
She told me that I was second to none
She promised me the stars, one by one
She had me goin' from the day we met
Plans were made, the date was set
Now it was picture perfect like Barbie and Ken
But this is now, that was then
And it's like water to a drownin' man
An IOU written in sand
Tryin' to beat three aces with a couple of kings
Yeah, a round trip on a runaway train
A handshake from Saddam Husein
Sweet dreams of love and a wedding ring
Didn't mean a thing, it didn't mean a thing, oh, no
-- Instrumental --
It's like water to a drownin' man
An IOU written in sand
Tryin' to beat three aces with a couple of kings
Yeah, a round trip on a runaway train
A handshake from Saddam Husein
Sweet dreams of love and a wedding ring
Didn't mean a thing, it didn't mean a thing, oh, no
Your cheque's in the mail, it didn't mean a thing
Mr. Clinton said he did not inhale, that didn't mean a
thing
Didn't mean a thing,
Until I heard it I was gettin' along
Now why'd you have to take me to that place
Make me think about her smilin' face
How she used to make me laugh out loud
Kiss me in the middle of a downtown crowd
Talk dirty to me on the phone
And then I woke up alone
And it's like water to a drownin' man
An IOU written in sand
Tryin' to beat three aces with a couple of kings
Yeah, a round trip on a runaway train
A handshake from Saddam Husein
Sweet dreams of love and a wedding ring
Didn't mean a thing, it didn't mean a thing, oh, no
Said she was the answer to my prayers
And as she ran her fingers through my hair
She told me that I was second to none
She promised me the stars, one by one
She had me goin' from the day we met
Plans were made, the date was set
But this is now, that was then
And it's like water to a drownin' man
An IOU written in sand
Tryin' to beat three aces with a couple of kings
Yeah, a round trip on a runaway train
A handshake from Saddam Husein
Sweet dreams of love and a wedding ring
Didn't mean a thing, it didn't mean a thing, oh, no
-- Instrumental --
It's like water to a drownin' man
An IOU written in sand
Tryin' to beat three aces with a couple of kings
Yeah, a round trip on a runaway train

Sweet dreams of love and a wedding ring
Didn't mean a thing, it didn't mean a thing, oh, no
Your cheque's in the mail, it didn't mean a thing

thing
Didn't mean a thing,
