Way I've Always Been
(Tom T. Hall)
I took your picture from the table
And now I'm finally alone
Took your number from my rolodex
I might get weak and call your phone.
I got my chainsaw from your brother
I did all of this and then
There ain't nothing new about me
I'm just the way I've always been.
Stopped at Harry's for a cold beer
And Danny won the football pool
John Garcetti's back to drinking
They caught his kids with drugs at school.
And everybody has their problems
Now you're gone and mine begin
There ain't nothing new about me
I'm just the way I've always been.
I'm just the way I've always been
I love you now, I loved you then
Same old faults and same old friends
I'm just the way I've always been.
--- Instrumental ---
Your uncle called about my pickup
He'd like to use it for a day
I told him come ahead and get it
'Cause I don't need it anyway.
He doesn't know that you don't live here
I guess I'll have to tell our friends
'Cause there ain't nothing new about me
I'm just the way I've always been.
I'm just the way I've always been
I love you now, I loved you then
Same old faults and same old friends
I'm just the way I've always been...
