10CC - Modern Man Blues lyrics

rate me

I'm tired Lord and I'm drawn And I'm chilled right to the bone I crawled home from my work And this note said she was gone Said your dinner's in the cat And your love is out the door I'm goin' back to my momma And I don't want you no more, no more She said she don't want me no more She's gone back to her momma Said she's never never comin' back no more Now a man can take so much And only heaven knows his limit But a naggin' bitchin' woman Digs a hole and puts him in it A sophisticated man Needs a little something on the side So what you don't get at home You've gotta get outside, hey She's gone I'm spending all of my money She's gone, gone, gone And I can swing with my honey She's gone I'm so glad my woman's gone Now time goes marching on And it won't wait for you You've gotta take it when it's offered And get it when it's due Now a man can move much faster Without a millstone around his neck So if you get the chance to lose it You've gotta drop it and run like heck, hey She's gone I'm spending all of my money She's gone, gone, gone And I can swing with my honey She's gone I'm so glad my woman's gone She's gone I'm spending all of my money She's gone, gone, gone And I can swing with my honey She's gone I'm so glad my woman's gone
