A year ago today

Was when you went away

But now you come back knockin' on my door

And you say you're back to stay,

But I say...

Go cry

On somebody else's shoulder

I'm somewhat wiser now

And one whole year older

I sure don't need you now

And I don't love you

Anymore

You cheated me baby,

And told some dirty lies about me

Fooled around with all those other guys

That's why I had to set you free

I sure don't need you now

And I don't love you

Anymore

A year ago today

You went away

And now you come back crying

Crying, crying: please, let me in

But I don't need you

No I don't love you anymore

So go lean on...go cry on

Somebody else's door

Go cry

On somebody else's shoulder

I'm somewhat wiser now

And one whole year older

I sure don't need you now

And I don't love you

Anymore (oh, my darling!)

(spoken:)

Go ahead and cry

Go ahead and let the tears fall outa your eye

Let 'em fall on your dress

Who cares if it makes a mess?

I gave you my high school ring

At the root beer stand

We had a teen-age love baby

I thought it was sharp

It was really so grand...but

You cheated me baby

And told some dirty lies about me

Fooled around with all those other guys

That's why I had to get my khakis pressed

I sure don't need you now

And I don't love you

Anymore

(spoken:)

Baby, I love you so much, darling

Why don't you dig me?

I dig you

But you don't dig me

I don't understand what it is

I had my car re-upholstered

I got my hair processed

I got a nice pompadour job on it

I bought a new pair of shoes

I got some new khakis and I met you

And we went out to get a coca-cola...
