Lyrics
Since You’ve Gone
Since you’ve gone I’ve taken up drinkin’
beer and whiskey, and very fine wine
Since you’ve gone I’ve taken up women
no one special they’re around all the time
(chorus)
So you might be in Chicago, maybe in LA
deep down in Texas, somewhere far away
Wherever you are babe, won’t you hear me say
Wherever you are, babe, I hope that’s where you stay
Without you, I’ve taken up sleeping
Every night, and every day
Without you, I’ve taken up smoking big cigars
that drive my friends away
(bridge)
Now I’m alone and there’s nothing but a different woman every night
a different kind of feeling right and wrong
Now I’m alone and there’s nothing but peace and quiet
And I wake up in the morning singing a song
Since you’re gone, I’ve taken up eating
regular meals I can finally afford
Since you’re gone I’ve given up working
I’m just hanging around and I never get bored
