Without Me Around

(Dean Dillon - John Northrup)



You say she asked if you knew where she could get some old boxes

'Cause she was going to pack up everything she owned

Where the closest U-Haul place is and what the cost was

This time tomorrow she'll be gone.



She says she knows of a place to sell her ring for a good price

That and what she saved will get her by

If she can find a job in that little town that she's headed to

To start over with her life.



Chorus:

Without me around

Taking up her time and tying her down

Without me in the way

She'll be free to enjoy the freedom

You say she's found without me around.



--- Instrumental ---



Said she didn't know what she was getting into when we got married

But she knows damn well what she's getting out of

Said she's had enough of a man who's never there when she needs him

She'll be better off in the long run.



Chorus:

Without me around

Taking up her time and tying her down

Without me in the way

She'll be free to enjoy the freedom

You say she's found without me around.



What she found without me around...
