Ain't got no place that I call home I'm just a drifter with a razor and comb Every night another cheap hotel Yes, you could say I ain't doing too well That's what I get, that's what I get That's what I get for losing you That's what I get, that's what I get That's what I get for losing you Somebody stole my watch and chain I didn't notice, wasn't feelin' no pain All I got left is a picture of you It's kinda faded and torn in two That's what I get, that's what I get That's what I get for losing you That's what I get, that's what I get That's what I get for losing you Love is foolish and love ain't fair When you need it, it's never there If you think love is so sweet and kind Just come and see me at closing time How did I get here? I don't know I had it all till I let you go I know love will never be the same Got nobody but myself to blame That's what I get, that's what I get That's what I get for losing you That's what I get, that's what I get That's what I get for losing you Love is foolish and love ain't fair When you need it, it's never there If you think love is so sweet and kind Just come and see me at closing time How did I get here, I don't know I had it all till I let you go I know love will never be the same Got nobody but myself to blame That's what I get, that's what I get That's what I get for losing you That's what I get, that's what I get That's what I get for losing you That's what I get, that's what I get That's what I get for losing you That's what I get, that's what I get That's what I get for losing you
