One time I was down and out And out and in Well I had myself a little problem But that's not where I want to begin Cause lately there's been a funny feeling That's peering out from inside I thought that I loved you baby but I know I got to survive
And I know, know in my heart It's better that we're apart I love you but you ain't no friend This is where I want to be grinnin
Grinnin all the time You're on your way, I'm on mine
Now this sordid little tale Has come to an end All those evenings I was gone and you were Hanging out with your so-called friends But a rumor is a rumor, I want the truth I wasn't born yesterday, I know what you're up to
And I know down in my heart It's better that we're apart I love you but you ain't no friend This is where I want to be grinnin
Grinnin all the time You're on your way, I'm on mine
