I Struck a Match

[Verse 1]
I went to a hop with my boyfriend
We were dancing to our favorite song
Somebody turned out the lights and he walked away
He said he wouldn't be gone too long

[Chorus 1]
I struck a match
And there he was a-kissing her
I struck a match
And there he was a-holding her
It took a match to catch him doin' me wrong

[Verse 2]
Well it was dark and I couldn't see her face
But I saw her hitting on my guy
All the kids were dancing and a-havin' fun
But I couldn't do a thing but cry

[Chorus 1]
I struck a match
And there he was a-kissing her
I struck a match
And there he was a-holding her
It took a match to catch him doing' me wrong

[Post-Chorus 1]
Well, I wiped away the tears and turned my head
So no one could see
But my girlfriend heard me cry and asked me
So I said, "A match burned me!"

[Verse 3]
The lights went on at the hop
And my boyfriend came back to my side
He said he went for a soda
I said, "Honey, I know you lied"

[Chorus 2]
'Cause I struck a match
And I saw you kissing
(I) I struck a match
And you were holding her
It took a match to catch him doin' me wrong

[Post-Chorus 2]
I wiped away the tears and turned my head
So no one could see
Well my boyfriend heard me cry and asked me
So I said, "A match burned me!"

[Chorus 1]
I struck a match
And there he was a-kissing her
I struck a match
And there he was a-holding her
It took a match to catch him doin' me wrong

[Outro]
Doin' me wrong
Yeah, doin' me wrong
Yeah, doin' me wrong
You were doin' me wrong
