I've got a lot of things to do since you said we're through
I'm just as busy as a bee, oh woe is me
I must admit it's gettin' rough
The days just aren't long enough
I've got a lot of things to do since you said we're through
[Chorus]
I gotta walk the floor & sing the blues
Ever since I heard the news
I gotta sit & cry all by myself
Since you put me on the shelf
I gotta hear the tick-tock of the clock
I gotta be alone by the telephone
I've got a lot of things to do since you said we're through
I gotta lose my appetite & never sleep at night
I gotta tell my broken heart that it's wrong to part
& like a fool I gotta dream
& hope & pray & even scheme
I've got a lot of things to do since you said we're through
[Chorus]
I gotta walk the floor & sing the blues
Ever since I heard the news
I gotta sit & cry all by myself
Since you put me on the shelf
I gotta hear the tick-tock of the clock
I gotta be alone by the telephone
I've got a lot of things to do since you said we're through
I gotta lose my appetite & never sleep at night
I gotta tell my broken heart that it's wrong to part
& like a fool I gotta dream
& hope & pray & even scheme
I've got a lot of things to do since you said we're through
