Gerry Rafferty Lyrics

"Wastin' Away" lyrics


I'm goin', yes I'm goin', yes I'm goin' awayI finally made up my mindI'm leavin', yes I'm leavin', yes I'm leavin' todayLeavin' the good life behind.
I can never be the kind of man you want me to beDon't cry, little darlin', don't cryYou don't know what this kind of life is doin' to meGoodbye, little darlin', goodbye.
Wastin' away, wastin' awayToo much of nothin' every dayWastin' away, wastin' awayToo much of nothin' every day
Once upon a time you would've asked me to stayI know, little darlin', I knowNow I get the feeling you don't care anywayIt shows, little darlin', it shows.
Wastin' away, wastin' awayToo much of nothin' every dayWastin' away, wastin' awayToo much of nothin' every day
I'm goin', yes I'm goin', yes I'm goin' awayI finally made up my mindI'm leavin', yes I'm leavin', yes I'm leavin' todayLeavin' the good life behind.
Wastin' away, wastin' awayToo much of nothin' every dayWastin' away, wastin' awayToo much of nothin' every day
Wastin' away, wastin' awayWastin' away, wastin' away
