Lyrics:

Well I'm busy not crying and I'm too tied up to care
Not thinking 'bout her is a twenty-four-hour affair
I can't weep and I can't worry
My whole life's just a hustle and hurry
Busy not crying over somebody that ain't there

Early each morning I roll out of bed
Jumpin' all around and a-shakin' my head
Trying to steer clear of the things she left behind
There's a pink pair of slippers and a coffee cup
One I can't fill, one not to fill up
Any more not to do and I think I'm gonna lose my mind

'Cause I'm busy not cryin' and I'm too tied up to care
Not thinkin' 'bout her is a twenty-four-hour affair
I can't weep and I can't worry
My whole life's just a hustle and hurry
Busy not cryin' over somebody that ain't there

Moving each day at a mighty quick pace
But my heart stays in the same sad place
Nothin' that heavy's gonna ever catch up to me
It takes all the fuel I can fit in my car
To ride around the spots where the memories are
And it's a full-blown chore overlookin' what's plain to see

'Cause I'm busy not cryin' and I'm too tied up to care
Not thinkin' 'bout her is a twenty-four-hour affair
I can't weep and I can't worry
My whole life's just a hustle and hurry
Busy not cryin' over somebody that ain't there
