When I woke up this morning in a cold sweat
Death was telling me to follow his cue
Well, I woke up this morning with a regret
Of not spending the night with you
And I looked around my bed and saw the books and the records and the booze
And I shook the thoughts of you from my head
And in the shower started singing a tune

No, I don’t feel too sad, but I could
No I don’t feel too bad now darling, but I sure could
But I don’t, and you better bet that I won't

When a girl came walking on by, I smiled and I nodded hello
And she screamed and she swung and nearly tore out my eyes
And started dancing when I fell to the floor
And I woke up in my bed, and saw the books and the records and the booze
And I shook the thoughts of love from my head
And in the shower started singing a tune

No, I don’t feel too sad, but I could
No I don’t feel too bad now darling, but I sure could
But I don’t, and you better bet that I won't
