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
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' ****
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 ln 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 ln 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
But I'm stuck here
havin' a record year
Yeah I'm havin' a record year
