You're heard enough of the blues and stuff
You're pretty swell now 'cause you're pretty tough
But I don't have to tell you how hard it can be to get by
You never bothered about anyone else
You're well educated with no common sense
But love that's one thing you really need to get by
All your troubles come from yourself
Nobody hurts you they don't care
Just as long as you show them a really good time
All the things you used to do
A trip to the movies a drink or two they don't satisfy you
They don't tell you anything new
You know I don't talk much except to myself
'Cause I've not much to say and there's nobody else
Who's ready and willing and able to know me
I guess listen to me I'm not finished yet
There's something to tell you that I can't forget
Just have a really good time
There's a girl I used to know her face is her fortune
She's got a heart of gold, she never goes out much
But boy when she does then you know, she's got no money
Well, maybe a dime but she knows what she's worth
And that's reason why she's gonna make it
She's got what it takes you'll appreciate that
She's probably late but I know and you know
We all know she'll have a really good time
