I thought I had your number - there must be some mistake I dialed six - three - seven - eleven - eighty eight I got some geezer; said his girlfriend's on the town I said, "I've got the wrong number," and I slammed the phone down Thought about it for a minute 'til the anger went away I figure every dog in town is gonna have his day Well, I could count the teardrops, or I could wonder why Well I used to be your lover - now I don't even try It was champagne parties and sweet love sins Now it's warm beer at midnight and girlie magazines I stack the empty cans up like a freshman in school It's the kind of thing you're into when you ain't nobody's fool Got my socks in the oven, something's growing in the sink I can't begin to face the day without a couple of drinks Ain't had a decent meal since you made me cry Well I used to be your lover - now I don't even try Memories, take a look at what you've done to me It's gettin' so all I do is watch TV Can't even prove that I'm alive Well, I thought I had your number - there must be some mistake I dialed six-three-seven-one-one-eight-eight I got some geezer; said his girlfriend's on the town I said, "I've got the wrong number," and I slammed the phone down But I know the number's right and you're his girl Though I wouldn't want to face it for the whole wide world Don't come back baby, I think I'm gonna die Well I used to be your lover, now I don't even try I used to be your lover, now I don't even try
