I've been up 'n' down
I've been all around
I was mystified, almost terrified
But late at night I still hear you call my name

I've been on my own
I've been all alone
I was hypnotized, I felt paralyzed
You broke my heart, 'n' Istill can feel the pain
(Feel the pain)

I've been a gambler, but I'm nobody's fool
'N' I sure know somethin', sure know somethin'
You showed me things they never taught me in school
'N' I sure know somethin', sure know somethin'
No one can make me feel the way that you do
'N I sure know somethin', aha

I was seventeen
You were just a dream
I was mesmerized, I felt scared inside
You broke my heart, 'n' I still can feel the pain

I've been counted out, I've had fear 'n' doubt
I've been starry eyed, never satisfied
But late at night I still need you
Just the same (just the same, hey)

I've been a gambler, but I'm nobody's fool
'N' I sure know somethin' (sure know somethin')
You showed me things they never taught me in school
'N' I sure know somethin' (sure know somethin')
No one can make me feel the way that you do
'N I sure know somethin', aha

I've been counted out, I've had fear 'n' doubt

'N' I sure know somethin' (sure know somethin')

No one can make me feel the way that you do
(Don't know somethin', don't know somethin')
No one can tell me 'till I hear it from you
(Don't know somethin', don't know somethin')
