Hey, how've you been? Good to see you again
Gee, it's been a long time
How's that new man, Mom & Dad
Since I told you goodbye?
Now I'm still the same, still raisin' Cain
Nobody's worried 'bout me
I come & I go, just as I please
Since I set myself free
CHORUS:
But I can't win for losin' you
I just can't get over you
Bein' footloose & fancy free
Ain't all it's cracked up to be
& the grass ain't no greener
Here on the other side
I might win a heart or 2
But I can't win for losin' you
Well I'm on my way, there's so much to say
Lord knows that I've had my time
Girl, you can bet I'll never forget
When you used to be mine
(repeat chorus & fade)
