lyrics

That’s What I Get

I made the decision
I stuck to my guns
You may disagree
But it’s all said and done

I let her go and for the most
I’m doing just fine
But I must admit that it gets a little cold at night

When she’s going to the movies
You know that theater from the 30’s
And she’s wearing her hair down
For the new guy that took her out

She never misses the previews
And she tries not to miss me
And it’s all my fault
That’s what I get for getting what I want

So I shuffle along
Yeah I might as well
At least now I have a little time to myself

I’m all by my lonesome
It’s a comfort I know
I guess now that make me the guy that you don’t take home

And she’s wearing her high heels
The ones that made her taller than me
And I’m in her head now
And she just wants to push me out

So she scoots a little closer
Puts her head on her shoulder
And it’s all my fault
That’s what I get for getting what I want
That’s what I get for getting what I want
That’s what I get for getting what I want
