Like Always

Steppin' off a stone
While I'm walkin' all alone
Walkin' all alone like always

I've got me a new car
It doesn't get me too far
I'm all outta gas like always

I gotta pay the rent
But all my money's spent
All my money's spent like always

I wonder where my pay went?
Missed another payment
I'm all out of bread like always

Girl, let the world have my money
I don't care
Girl, make my troubles seem funny and small
In no time at all

Hey, girl (I've been down so long)
And why should it be wrong if I can't hide?
If I get to be the highest thing in view
(I'm just thinking of you) you alone, you alone
(And you alone) You make up for the bad times that I know right now (The bad times I know)
Knowing that if you don't (Go away)
(It won't be the same again) I'll be down another friend
(Let me say it once again)
Don't you let it go (Slip away like always)
Down, down (Don't slip away like always)

Girl, let the world have my money
I don't care
Girl, make my troubles seem funny and small
In no time at all

Things have gotta move
I've been too long in this groove
Hung up in this groove like always

Things are gettin' better
Ever since I met her
Oh-oh, there she goes, mm, like always

Ah, like always (Slip away like always)
I know I don't know what to do about that girl (Slip away like always)
She comes and goes and goes and goes (Slip away like always)
Slip away like always
Slip away like always
Slip away like always (Slip away like always)
Slip away like always (Slip away like always)
Slip away like always (Slip away like always)
Slip away like always (Slip away like always)
Slip away like always (Slip away like always)
Slip away like always (Slip away like always)
