Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I once had a girl
Or should I say
She once had me?
[Verse 2]
She showed me her room
Isn't it good
Norwegian wood?
[Bridge]
She asked me to stay
And she told me to sit anywhere
So I looked around
And I noticed there wasn't a chair
[Verse 3]
I sat on a rug
Biding my time
Drinking her wine
[Verse 4]
We talked until two
And then she said
"It's time for bed"
[Bridge]
She told me she worked in the morning
And started to laugh
I told her I didn't
And crawled off to sleep in the bath
[Verse 5]
And when I awoke
I was alone
This bird had flown
[Verse 6]
So I lit a fire
Isn't it good
Norwegian wood?
