Bonnie Raitt - No Gettin' Over You lyrics

rate me

Well I went and gave away my TV<br />

Told the man "cut off the phone"<br />

I put an ad in the paper, baby,<br />

Gonna sell everything I own<br />

Done everything in the world I know<br />

To try to make it through<br />

There's just no getting over you<br />

Well I went and bought myself a new straw hat<br />

One eye pokin' under the brim<br />

Bought myself a little seaside shack<br />

In case I might just want to swim<br />

Done everything I know in the world I know<br />

To try to shake these blues but<br />

There's just no getting over you<br />

Well I try and try<br />

But honey it ain't no use<br />

Cry and cry<br />

I just can't turn you loose<br />

Why oh why<br />

Can't I get you off my mind<br />

You got that hook so far in<br />

I gotta get you off my line<br />

Well I got some transcendental meditation<br />

And I'm taking up Japanese<br />

I signed up at the cooking school<br />

I'm going to pick up on some hard cuisine<br />

Done everything in the world<br />

Just to try to make it through<br />

There's just no getting over you<br />

Well I try and try<br />

But honey it ain't no use<br />

Cry and cry<br />

Just can't turn you loose<br />

Why oh why<br />

can't I get you off my mind<br />

You got that hook so far in<br />

I just got to get you off my line<br />

Now listen to this one time<br />

You know the way you do, honey<br />

Well I just can't make it over<br />

Can't seem to make it baby<br />

No matter what I say or do baby<br />

I can't make it over<br />

Oooh<br />

Well there's just no getting over you
