Bill Anderson - It's Just Gonna Take Some Getting Used To lyrics

It's not that I can't get up in the morning

And go fry myself an egg

It's not that I can't reach and put a bandaid

On the scratch on my leg.

It's not that I can't iron a shirt

And sweep up dirt and feed the bird

All the little things you used to do

But it's just gonna take some gettin' used to.

It's not that I can't organize the checkbook

And make sure the bills're paid

It's not that I might be sleeping in the house

All by myself, I'm not afraid.

And I can water all the plants

And mend my pants and spray for ants

All the things I never had to do

It's just gonna take some gettin' used to.

I'm just gonna have to take my life

And do a little rearranging

But I don't mean that something's bad necessarily

Just 'cause it's changing.

I've heard it said

A man can adjust to anything

Except to have a rock down in his shoe

It's just gonna take some gettin' used to.

I may be the only man on this whole block

Who's the lady of the house

But someone's gotta stay and float a ship

When the captain's bailing out.

So you go on and have your fun

And worry none and listen hon

I won't be here grievin' over you

It's just gonna take some gettin' used to.

I'm just gonna have to take my life

And do a little rearranging

But I don't mean that something's bad necessarily

Just 'cause it's changing.

I've heard it said

A man can adjust to anything

Except to have a rock down in his shoe

It's just gonna take some gettin' used to...
