I taught her everything she knows and then what did she do
She turned to someone else and taught him everythging she knew
The way to hold me close and kiss so tenderly
The words to say the things to do she learned from me
I taught her love's all that matters on this earth
But then she left me so what was in our world
I thought that she'd be true to me but that's the way it goes
He ought to thank me cause I taught her everything she knows
