Once she said -
"You mean so much to me."
Now she says -
"You're mean too much to me."
Looks like she's gonna leave me -
claiming I'm a thoughtless brute.
But I hope she'll think it over
before she files suit.
Chorus:
She says one thing
then she changes her mind.
Maybe that's the reason why
I'm nervous nearly all the time.
Once she said -
"I wanna have a home."
Now she says -
"I wanna have the home."
She talks about the things she needs
and says I'm comin' up short.
But there's a chance she'll think it over
before our day in court.
repeat CHORUS
You see I haven't been on my own
in an awf'lly long while.
So I wish she would remember
how I used to make her smile.
Now she says -
"I've got someone new."
But I bet she'll say -
"He's not so new."
He won't be any better.
He won't be what she wants him to be.
And I know that she's gonna think it over
and come back to me.
repeat CHORUS
