Lyrics
"How can I miss you if you won't go away"?
she said that to me just the other day
then she said to me 'oh by the way'
you got things to do boy,
you've got bills to pay
I need more money just to pay my rent
I make it and she spends it every cent
no matter how much it always says bye bye (bye bye)
get your hand out my wallet babe
I said my last goodbye.
I can't believe anything you say
it doesnt really matter any old way
you've been a solo most of your life
I couldn''t believe it when you said you'd be my wife
so pack your bags and head for the door
get on back to where you were before
I know that's all that you ever dream of
you can take my money girl, not my love
instrumental break
So that's my story that's the way that it goes
she took my money left me only my clothes
5 bucks in my pocket she even took my ride (took my ride)
get your hand out my wallet babe
this is my last goodbye.
I can't believe anything you say
it doesnt really matter any old way
you've been a solo most of your life
I couldn''t believe it when you said you'd be my wife
so pack your bags and head for the door
get on back to where you were before
I know that's all that you ever dream of
you can take my money girl, not my love
