[Verse 1]
I walked alone to my best friend's house last Wednesday at a quarter to three
It's not very far, it's just through the alley and across from the sycamore tree
I guess I was afraid to do it
Well, now that it's done, there ain't nothing to it
I walked alone to my best friend's house
(He walked alone to his best friend's house)
(He walked alone to his best friend's house)
[Verse 2]
I took a swim in the deep end of the pool just yesterday night
I swam and swam 'til my skin got lookin' all wrinkly and white
I guess I was afraid to do it
Well, now that it's done, there ain't nothin' to it
I took a swim in the deep end of the pool
(He took a swim in the deep end)
(He took a swim in the deep end of the pool)
[Chorus]
Before I did it, I was oh so scared I almost cried (He cried)
Oh yeah (He cried)
I never knew how much fun it could be 'til I tried (He tried)
I tried (You tried)
[Verse 3]
When my mother needed pickles for potato salad, I walked to the store by myself
All I did was ask where they were, and the man brought them down from the shelf
I guess I was afraid to do it
Well, now that it's done, there ain't nothin to it
I walked to the store to buy pickles for potato salad for my mother all by myself
(He bought pickies for potato salad)
(His mother's cooking is real good)
[Chorus]
Before I did it, I was oh so scared, I almost cried
You should have heard my cry
I never knew how easy it was until I tried
As a matter of fact, I really, really tried
[Outro]
I walked alone to my best friend's house
I took a swim in the deep end of the pool
I bought pickles for potato salad all by myself
I walked alone to my best friend's house last Wednesday at a quarter to three
It's not very far, it's just through the alley and across from the sycamore tree
I guess I was afraid to do it
Well, now that it's done, there ain't nothing to it

(He walked alone to his best friend's house)
(He walked alone to his best friend's house)
