All right, you guys feel funky tonight, ah yeah
this is an old Memphis song, old Memphis song
 I used to smoke
 Five packs of cigarettes a day
 It was the hardest thing
 To put them away
 I drink four or five bottles of wine
 I kept a glass
 In my hand all the time
 Breaking those habits was hard to do
 But nothing compared to the changes
 You put me through
Trying to live my life without you babe
 It's the hardest thing I'll ever do
 Trying to forget the love we once shared
 It's the hardest thing I'll ever have
 All right, I said
 I had the worst reputation in town
 For chasing all the women around
 I thought changing my way of living
 Was hard to do
 But it's nothing compared to the changes
 That you put me through
 I've done everything I've tried to do
 But it's gonna take a miracle
 To get me over you
Trying to live my life without you babe
 It's the hardest thing I'll ever do
 Trying to forget the love we once shared
 It's the hardest thing I'll ever have
 All right, I said
 I had the worst reputation in town
 For chasing all the women around
 I thought changing my way of living
 Was hard to do
 But it's nothing compared to the changes
 That you put me through
 I've done everything I've tried to do
 But it's gonna take a miracle
 To get me over you
