I Just Don’t Have You

Everything’s turned out so good

Just like I always said it would

I got more riches than one man should claim

I even got back my ole’ good name

I just might make it to the Hall of Fame

Every one a my critic’s been put to shame

It all turned out so good

I just don’t have you

Everything turned out so fine

I’ve become a legend in my own time

I’m no Johnny-come-late, I’m a latter-day Faust

I got a spiffy car and a brand new house

I got odles of money and a trophy spouse

Nobody remembers I was such a louse

It all turned out so fine

I just don’t have you

Everything’s turned out so sweet

Now I’m as wholesome as potatoes and meat

I’m in the prime of my prime, living a life of ease

I can go where I want and do what I please

I’m just sitting around shooting the breeze

Who would a thought I’d become such a tease

Everything’s turned out so sweet

I just don’t have you

Everything turned out so grand

I no longer have to live from mouth to hand

I am the chairman of the board, I’m the leader of the pack

Everyone wants me to scratch their back

I’ve become so much more than the sum of my lacks

I can kick up my feet and finally relax

Everything turned out so grand

I just don’t have you

Everything’s come out so swell

I’ve escaped from my living Hell

I’m the talk of the town, I’m the king of the hill

I’m fit to be tied and dressed to kill

Everybody thinks I’ve become such a pill

I’m drowning in the luxury of my own swill

I shouldn’t complain but I probably will

Everything turned out swell

I just don’t have you
