[Verse 1]

She gets up with her head swung low down

Steps into the room

She says;

"Please listen while I sing my song to you

'Cuz it all slips away and it ends too soon"

[Pre-Chorus]

"How in the hell did I get here?

Let me tell you all why I sing the blues

Been in a daze for ten years

But I still can sing the truth"

[Chorus]

Heaven knows where we all go

When all we have is what we get

And when it's gone, when will I know?

Because I haven't got it yet

Because I haven't got it yet

Haven't got it yet

[Verse 2]

Swayin' to the swing of the music

Her arms wave in the air

She turns her head, our eyes make contact

It lets me know I'm there

Right there, now

[Pre-Chorus]

"How in the hell did I get here?"

I'd still hear her cry the blues

Been in a daze for ten years

And she still can sing the truth

[Chorus]

Heaven knows where we all go

When all we have is what we get

And when it's gone, when will I know?

Because I haven't got it yet

Heaven knows where we all go

When all we have is what we get

And when it's gone, where does it go?

Because I haven't found it yet

[Bridge]

Did you find that ride?

Did you finally fly?

While I sat there, kickin' and bitchin'

Sayin' "gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme what's mine"

I thought I had it all, I wanted more, no need for you

I slammed the door, I cut you loose

What are the chances that I'd walk in here and find the truth?

[Solo]

[Chorus]

[Outro (Spoken)]

"Of all the Gin joints in the world

I had to walk into this one

And there she was

Those big eyes, that big voice

And the truth

And nothin' but the truth

Well, maybe a few other things

Say like, you know, great bare legs

And that ass... OW MAN!

But I left it all behind me

Like Yogi says;

'Deja Vu all over again'

Well, let's see if she'll talk to me, or

Just blow me off

See ya later

Waiter, check please!"
