There once was a man who loved a woman She was the one he slew a dragon for They say that nobody ever loved as much as he But me, I love you more And there once was a man who loved a woman She was the one he gave his kingdom for They say that nobody ever loved as much as he But me, I love you more My love is a giant, fierce and defiant But how can I prove it to you Ain't got no kingdom or dragon To back up my braggin' How can I show what I would do I only know there once was a man Who loved a woman She was the one he ate the apple for They say that nobody ever loved as much as he But me, I love you more There once was a woman who loved a man He was the one that she took poison for They say that nobody ever loved as much as she But me, I love you more And there once was a woman who loved a man He was the one she swam the channel for They say that nobody ever loved as much as she But me, I love you more My love's meteoric, it's merely historic A whirlwind, a cyclone on wheels It rocks my whole solar plexus It's bigger than Texas I just can't tell you how it feels I only know there once was a woman Who loved a man Loved him enough to cause the Trojan war They say that nobody ever loved as much as she But me, I love you more, more, more, more More than a hangman loves his rope More than a dopefiend loves his dope More than an Injun loves his scalps More than a yodeler loves his alps More, more, more, more, more There once was a man There once was a woman who loved a woman who loved a man She was the one he slew the dragon for He was the one that she took poison for They say that nobody ever loved as much as he she But me, I love you more But me, I love you more
