Original Songs by Kent Newsome

My Old Girlfriend


My old girlfriend
Got married today
She got carried away
With a ring on her hand
My old girlfriend
Used to love me a lot
Until she forgot
That I was her man

Chorus:
I would have asked her
If she'd waited a while
Waltzed her across Texas
And straight down that aisle
I would have loved her
For the rest of her life
But now my old girlfriend
Is somebody's wife

My old girlfriend
Got to take that walk
The one she always thought
She'd get to take with me
My old girlfriend
Is so happy right now
She's walking on clouds
That I couldn't see

Chorus:
I would have asked her
If she'd waited a while
Waltzed her across Texas
And straight down that aisle
I would have loved her
For the rest of her life
But now my old girlfriend
Is somebody's wife

Bridge:
My old girlfriend got married today
Her old boyfriend just got swept away

Chorus:
I would have asked her
If she'd waited a while
Waltzed her across Texas
And straight down that aisle
I would have loved her
For the rest of her life
But now my old girlfriend
Is somebody's wife
