Dead Before I Was Born

Well, the Lord must have had a stay-up when I was born
He went to bed, closed his eyes and had some fun
Mommy said she wanted me and was welcome
And Daddy gave me a spin and it was done

I was there before I was born
I was there before I was born

The first thing that I saw wasn't white
The nurse came with her scissors, said "It's a boy"
Well, the doctor hit my head, said "Go on, cry"
And then I started to scream and I was alive

I was there before I was born
I was there before I was born
I was there before I was born
I was there before I was born

And now I'm here and I don't know why
Because I was in hospital
And now I'm here and I don't know why
Because I was in hospital

I was there before I was born
I was there before I was born
I was there before I was born
I was there before I was born
