I Don't Even Try

I thought I had your number
There must be some mistake
I dialled 6 — 3 — 7 — 11 — 88
I got some geezer
Said his girlfriend’s on the town
I said, «I've got the wrong number,»
And I slammed the phone down
Thought about it for a minute 'til the anger went away
I figure every dog in town is gonna have his day
Well, I could count the teardrops, or I could wonder why
Well I used to be your lover
Now I don’t even try
It was champagne parties and sweet love sins
Now it’s warm beer at midnight and girlie magazines
I stack the empty cans up like a freshman in school
It’s the kind of thing you’re into when you ain’t nobody’s fool
Got my socks in the oven, something’s growing in the sink
I can’t begin to face the day without a couple of drinks
Ain’t had a decent meal since you made me cry
Well I used to be your lover
Now I don’t even try
Memories
Take a look at what you’ve done to me
It’s gettin' so all I do is watch TV
Can’t even prove that I’m alive
Well, I thought I had your number
There must be some mistake
I dialled 6−3-7−1-1−8-8
I got some geezer
Said his girlfriend’s on the town
I said, «I've got the wrong number,»
And then I slammed the phone down
But I know the number’s right and you’re his girl
Though I wouldn’t want to face it for the whole wide world
Don’t come back baby, I think I’m gonna die
Well I used to be your lover
Now I don’t even try
I used to be your lover
Now I don’t even try
Used to be your lover
Used to be your lover
Used to be your lover, Baby
Hey yeah
