My baby she wrote me a letter |
|
She didn't call me on the phone |
|
Five little words was all she wrote |
|
See ya later I'm gone |
|
She had no explanation |
|
About why she had to go |
|
Well I can't take a joke |
|
But I can take a hint |
|
She don't love me no more |
|
But if nobody loves you |
|
And you feel like dust |
|
On an empty shelve |
|
Just remember |
|
You can love yourself |
|
My mother says |
|
She loves me |
|
But you know |
|
She could be jivin' too |
|
And everybody's always criticizing |
|
Everything that I do |
|
I work 9 to 5, do the best I can |
|
Try to please the boss |
|
I bought a big ol' house |
|
And a brand new car |
|
And then he laid me off |
|
But if nobody loves you |
|
And you feel like dust |
|
On an empty shelve |
|
Just remember |
|
You can love yourself |
|
Every time I meet a lady |
|
I wanna try to get to know |
|
Either I'm too small |
|
Or she's too tall |
|
She's rich and I'm po' |
|
So I called my old friend |
|
Hazel Mae |
|
Asked her out for a little date |
|
She said "I'm married now |
|
And I got three little kids |
|
Boy ya just a little too late" |
|
But if nobody loves you |
|
And you feel like dust |
|
On an empty shelve |
|
Just remember |
|
You can love yourself |
|
But if nobody loves you |
|
And you feel like dust |
|
On an empty shelve |
|
Just remember |
|
You can love yourself |
