Lyrics I Was Doin' All Right - Annie Ross

I Was Doin' All Right

Used to lead quiet existence
Always had my peace of mind
Kept Old Man Trouble at a distance
My days were silver lined!
Right on top of the world I sat
But look at me now, I don’t know where I’m at!
I was doing alright
Nothing but rainbows in my sky
I was doing alright
Till you came by!
Had no cause to complain
Life was as sweet as apple pie
Never noticed the rain
Till you came by!
But now, whenever you’re away
Can’t sleep nights and I suffer all the day;
I just sit and wonder
If love isn’t one big blunder!
But when you’re holding me tight
Tingling all through, I feel somehow
I was doing alright
But I’m doing better than ever now!
Oh, I was doin' alright
Nothin' but rainbows in my sky
I was doin' alright
Till you came by!
I had no cause to complain
Life was as sweet as apple pie
Never noticed the rain
Till you came by!
But now, whenever you’re away
Can’t sleep nights and I suffer all the day;
I just sit and wonder
If love isn’t one big blunder!
Johnny, when you’re holdin' me tight
Oh, tingling all through, I feel somehow
I was doin' alright
But I’m doing better than ever now!
