Lyrics
The moment we first met on a day I?ll never forget
What they say about love at first sight now I know is true
Oh man she was a beauty, really did something to me
I was a fish on the line but I?m tellin? ya she was the catch
Oh Jannie ? What would I be?
Oh Jannie ... Baby can?t you see, all you mean to me?
Oh Jannie ... Where would I be?
Where would I be without you?
Ooh that little black dress spun my head I must confess
It was a daze I?d like to stay in all of my life
She aimed to please, macaroni and cheese me
But it should be clear she?s my favorite dish
Oh Jannie ? What would I be?
Oh Jannie ... Baby can?t you see, all you mean to me?
Oh Jannie ... Where would I be?
Where would I be without you?
Put a golden band on each other?s hand
Made a promise we?d stick it out through the bad and good
And all this time it?s seemed I been living in a dream
But when I open my eyes I?m always lying here next to you
Oh Jannie ? What would I be?
Oh Jannie ... Baby can?t you see, all you mean to me?
Oh Jannie ... Where would I be?
Where would I be without you?
