Without a doubt, I just found out
And I suppose I never did get to know her

[Post-Verse]
Oh, Tear Drop City

How much I really love her
How'd I ever end up in this bag?
What a drag
[Outro]
'Bout as low as I've felt in a long time
(Tear drop, Tear Drop City)
I'm 'bout as low as I've felt in a long time
(Tear drop, Tear Drop City)
I'm 'bout as low as I've felt in a long time
(Tear drop, Tear Drop City)
I'm 'bout as low as I've felt in a long time...
