Gerry Rafferty - Wastin' Away lyrics

I'm goin', yes I'm goin', yes I'm goin' away

I finally made up my mind

I'm leavin', yes I'm leavin', yes I'm leavin' today

Leavin' the good life behind.

I can never be the kind of man you want me to be

Don't cry, little darlin', don't cry

You don't know what this kind of life is doin' to me

Goodbye, little darlin', goodbye.

Wastin' away, wastin' away

Too much of nothin' every day

Wastin' away, wastin' away

Too much of nothin' every day

Once upon a time you would've asked me to stay

I know, little darlin', I know

Now I get the feeling you don't care anyway

It shows, little darlin', it shows.

Wastin' away, wastin' away

Too much of nothin' every day

Wastin' away, wastin' away

Too much of nothin' every day

I'm goin', yes I'm goin', yes I'm goin' away

I finally made up my mind

I'm leavin', yes I'm leavin', yes I'm leavin' today

Leavin' the good life behind.

Wastin' away, wastin' away

Too much of nothin' every day

Wastin' away, wastin' away

Too much of nothin' every day

Wastin' away, wastin' away

Wastin' away, wastin' away
