Almost Always True

(words & music by Fred Wise - Ben Weisman)

I was always, baby, I was always

Well almost always true to you

Met a pretty mademoiselle

Her papa owned a small hotel

Oh, I was almost always true to you

I resisted tho` my arm was twisted

I was almost always true to you

Stayed away from drinkin` wine

Thought about you all the time

Oh, I was almost always true to you

Kept refusin` don`t jump to conclusions

I was almost always true to you

I would never grab like this

I would never steal a kiss

Oh, I was almost always true to you
