Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You turned the tables on me
And now I'm falling for you
You turned the tables on me
I can't believe that it's true
[Verse 2]
I always thought when you brought
The lovely present you bought
Why haven't you brought me more
But now if you'd come
I'd welcome anything
From the five and ten cent store
[Verse 3]
You used to call me the top
You put me up on a throne
You let me fall with a drop
Now I'm out on my own
[Verse 4]
But after thinking it over and over
I got what was coming to me
Just like the sting of a bee
You turned the tables on me
[Verse 5]
You turned the tables on me
And now I'm falling for you
You turned the tables on me
I can't believe that it's true
[Verse 6]
I always thought
When you brought the presents you brought
Why haven't you brought me more
But now if you'd come
I'd welcome anything
From the five and ten cent store
[Verse 7]
You used to call me the top
You put me up on a throne
You let me fall with a drop
And now I'm out on my own
[Verse 8]
But after thinking it over and over
I got what was coming to me
Just like the sting of a bee
You turned the tables on me
[Verse 9]
You used to call me the top, yeah the top
You're like Sarah singing, you put me up on the throne
You'd let me fall with a drop
[Verse 10]
And now I'm ou-ou-out on my own
But after thinking, thinking it over and over
I got what was coming to me
Do-be, do-do-be-do
De-foo, de-de-foo-dee
You turned the tables on me
