| Since you turned the tables on me
|
| I’ve been steady and learnin' lonely
|
| Keepin' this turntable spinnin'
|
| Everything from Jones to Jennings
|
| Slowly plannin' my survival
|
| In a three-foot stack of vinyl
|
| Since you had to walk on outta here
|
| I’ve been havin' a record year
|
| I bet you thought before you left
|
| I’d just sit in silence by myself
|
| Turn this house into a jail
|
| Dyin' slow in a livin' hell
|
| But love’s got a funny way of keepin' score
|
| And your leavin' lit up my scoreboard
|
| I usually make it through side A sober
|
| All bets are off when I flip her over
|
| One bourbon, one scotch, one beer
|
| I’m havin' a record year
|
| Quarter notes and Hank’s half time
|
| Are poundin' on this heart of mine
|
| Song to song, I pass my time
|
| With these speakers on ten
|
| Your good-and-gone keeps me up all night
|
| Along with Songs In The Key of Life
|
| I’m either gonna get over you
|
| Or I’m gonna blow out my ears
|
| Yeah, you’re out there now
|
| Doin' God knows how, and I’m stuck here
|
| Havin' a record year
|
| Your leavin' left me goin' crazy
|
| I’m countin' on a needle to save me
|
| I drop it in the groove
|
| And we go 'round and 'round
|
| And down in a spiral
|
| I guess I really oughta call and thank you
|
| I rediscovered Red Headed Stranger
|
| Got down with old James Brown
|
| And found New Grass Revival
|
| If you find your way back, I owe you a beer
|
| For my record year
|
| Quarter notes and Hank’s half time
|
| Are poundin' on this heart of mine
|
| Song to song, I pass my time
|
| With these speakers on ten
|
| Your good-and-gone keeps me up all night
|
| Along with Songs In The Key Of Life
|
| I’m either gonna get over you
|
| Or I’m gonna blow out my ears
|
| Yeah, you’re out there now
|
| Doin' God knows how, and I’m stuck here
|
| Havin' a record year
|
| Yeah, I’m havin' a record year |
