You called it quits and hung up the phone
Now go love the one you choose
And my friends say I should be happy
If I'm happy this is a good imitation of the blues.

You've threatened to leave one too many times
I'm getting out a travelling shoe
And now that you are gone I'm gonna be walking home
With this good imitation of the blues.

My friends all say you're no good without me
They tell me that's good for you
They say that I'm just doing fine
This good imitation of the blues.

You've threatened to leave one too many times
I'm getting out a travelling shoe
And now that you are gone I'm gonna be walking home
With this good imitation of the blues...
