Bobbie Gentry — I Wouldn't Be Surprised lyrics

Lyrics

If the ground were to freeze
Underneath my feet
In the summertime
I wouldn’t be surprised
If the rain from the skies
Should put out my eyes
And make me blind
I wouldn’t be surprised
'Cause nothing surprises me Ever since you said to me Good bye
You said forever and I believed
That’s the way it would always be Then she took you away from me So suddenly
Now if the world was to end
Never again to turn for me I wouldn’t be surprised
And if she were to hurt you
I should do some crazy thing like
Take you back
I wouldn’t be surprised
'Cause nothing surprises me Ever since you said to me Good bye
You said forever and I believed
That’s the way it would always be Then she took you away from me So suddenly
Now if the world was to end
Never again to turn for me I wouldn’t be surprised
And if she were to hurt you
And I should do some crazy thing like
Take you back
I wouldn’t be surprised
I’d hold you
And scold you
And tell you I told you
