Concrete Cowboys - Thanks For Nothin' lyrics

rate me

Well the bank called this mornin’ and they told me the news

That you’re now the proud owner of whatever you choose

Between the cars and the mortgage, I’ll just wish you the best

But to help me start over I have one small request…

Chorus:

I’ll take a penny for the heart you broke

I think that’s only fair

It ain’t worth a penny more you know

Since you’re not there

I’ll take a penny for the troubled mind

And another for the tears I’ve cried

A little somethin’ to ease the fall

Thanks for nothin’ at all

Well I sat down last night and I worked up the figures

Just what you have cost me over sixteen-odd years

And it may sound cold-hearted but I thought you should know

Just how much I’m losin’ and how much you owe…

Repeat Chorus
