~Favorite Breakup Song~








Don't Think Twice, It's Alright - Bob Dylan

Well, it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe

If you don't know by now
An' it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe

It'll never do, somehow

When your rooster crows at the break of dawn

Look out your window and I'll be gone
You're the reason I'm trav'lin' on

But don't think twice, it's all right

And it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
That light I never knowed

An' it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road

But I wish there was somethin' you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay

We never did too much talkin' anyway
But don't think twice, it's all right


So it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal

Like you never did before
And it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal

I can't hear you anymore

I'm a-thinkin' and a-wond'rin', walkin' down the road,

I once loved a woman, a child I'm told
I give her my heart but she wanted my soul

But don't think twice, it's all right

So long, honey, babe
Where I'm bound, I can't tell

Goodbye's too good a word, babe
So I'll just say fare thee well

I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind
You coulda done better but I don't mind

You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don't think twice, it's all right

Hit the road Jack!



Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more. (What you say?)
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.

Oh! Woman, oh woman, don't treat me so mean,
You're the meanest old woman that I've ever seen.

I guess if you said so
I'd have to pack my things and go. (That's right)

Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.

Now baby, listen baby, don't-a treat me this-a way
Cause I'll be back on my feet some day.

Don't care if you do 'cause it's understood

You ain't got no money you just ain't no good.

Well, I guess if you say so
I have to pack my things and go. (That's right)

Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more.
Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more.

Don't you come back no more.
(What you say)

Don't you come back no more
(Come on baby)
Don't you come back no more

Amarillo by morning George Strait


Amarillo by morning, up from San Antone.
Everything that I've got is just what I've got on.
When that sun is high in that Texas sky

I'll be bucking it to county fair.
Amarillo by morning, Amarillo I'll be there.

They took my saddle in Houston, broke my leg in Santa Fe.
Lost my wife and a girlfriend somewhere along the way.
Well I'll be looking for eight when they pull that gate,
And I'm hoping that judge ain't blind.
Amarillo by morning, Amarillo's on my mind.

Amarillo by morning, up from San Antone.

Everything that I've got is just what I've got on.
I ain't got a dime, but what I got is mine.
I ain't rich, but Lord I'm free.
Amarillo by morning, Amarillo's where I'll be.
Amarillo by morning, Amarillo's where I'll be.

The ballad version of Neil Sedaka’s “Breaking Up is Hard To Do”. Many, many close seconds, but this one hits me right between the eyes!

David Allen Coe - That’s who I was thinking of!
I didn’t know about Steve Goodman. City of New Orleans is a fave of mine.

Despite the rather salty title, "Grudge F**k," written by Joe Pernice, is a sadly beautiful song.

Tonight I got nowhere to go
And I thought that I would call you
to see if you were home

I'm sorry but I'm pretty stoned
I hope I didn't scare you
I hope to God you were alone

I still fixate on all of those nights
when we would drink ourselves familiar
and count the blurry lights
all my friends have left me here
you were the only one who knew me
sometimes I think I'll disappear

I would give anything to make it with you
just one more time
I'd give you everything I owned
I would give anything to make it with you
just one more time
I'd give you everything I owned

I really miss the shit where your concern
I only wish I had another turn

I guess it's time I let you fly
I can see the light is changing
I feel like getting high
I promise I'd sleep on the floor
I swear to God I wouldn't touch you
there could be no one who'd ever touch you
I would give anything to make it with you just one more time
I'd give you everything I owned
I would give anything to make it with you
just one more time
I'd give you everything I owned
I'd give you everything I owned
