What A Damn Shame

I went to the closet to see what I had
Pulled the one suit that I own from the rack
If I could tell the future, I'd just put it back
What a damn shame (Shame)

Mama always said I should dress to impress
So I press my slacks and I hope for the best
If I could tell the future I woulda tried less
What a damn shame

I heard Sinatra wouldn't be caught dead without a suit
Well I know I'm not him
My hair's more curly and my eyes a little less blue

What a damn shame
What a damn shame
What a damn shame when it don't go right
What a damn shame to waste a good shirt on a bad night

The waiter sat mе down at a table for two
Asked me what I'm having said I'm waiting for you
By thе look in his eyes, I think he already knew
It's a damn shame
After 'bout an hour he poured me a drink
Said this is on the house, I said it's not what you think
I bet he could tell my heart was starting to sink
It's a damn shame

I heard Sinatra wouldn't be caught dead without a suit
Well I know I'm not him
'Cause he wouldn't be sitting here
Getting stood up by you

What a damn shame
What a damn shame
What a damn shame when it don't go right
What a damn shame to waste a good shirt on a bad night

I guess I'll take the roses that I bought for you
Put 'em in some water in the living room
'Cause why should they have to suffer too?
Such a damn shame

What a damn shame
What a damn shame
What a damn shame when it don't go right
What a damn shame to waste a good shirt on a bad night
What a damn shame
What a damn shame
What a damn shame when it don't go right
What a damn shame to waste a good shirt on a bad night
What a damn shame to waste a good shirt on a bad night
