Since I met you baby
My whole life has changed
Since I met you baby
My whole life has changed
And everybody tells me that I am not the same

I don't need nobody 
To tell my troubles to
I don't need nobody
To tell my troubles to
'Cause since I met you baby, all I need is you

Since I met you baby
I'm a happy man
Since I met you baby
I'm a happy man
I'm gonna try to please you in every way I can

Ivory Joe Hunter

Ivory Joe Hunter (October 10, 1914 – November 8, 1974) was an American rhythm and blues singer, songwriter, and pianist. After a series of hits on the US R&B chart starting in the mid 1940s, he became more widely known for his hit recording, "Since I Met You Baby" (1956). He was billed as The Baron of the Boogie, and also known as The Happiest Man Alive. His musical output transgressed from R&B to blues, boogie-woogie, and country, and Hunter made a name in all of those genres. Uniquely, he was honored at the Monterey Jazz Festival and the Grand Ole Opry. more »
