For Lovin Me & Did She Mention My Name
Lyrics
That's what you get for lovin' me - That's what you get for lovin' me
Everything you had is gone - As you can see
That's what you get for lovin' me
I ain't the kind to hang around - With any new love that I found
Since movin' is my stock in trade - I'm movin' on
I won't think of you when I'm gone
Break
So don't you shed a tear for me - Because I ain't the love you thought I'd be
I got a hundred more like you - So don't be blue
I'll have a thousand 'fore I'm through
Now there you go you've cried again - Now there you go you've cried again
But then someday when your poor heart - is on the mend
I just might pass this way again
That's what you get for lovin' me - That's what you get for lovin' me
Everything you had is gone - As you can see - That's what you get for lovin' me
That's what you get for lovin' me

It's so nice to meet an old friend and pass the time of day
And talk about the home town a million miles away
Is the ice still on the river, are the old folks still the same
And by the way - did she mention my name
Did she mention my name just in passing
And when the morning came, do you remember if she dropped a name or two
Is the home team still on fire, do they still win all the games
And by the way -- did she mention my name
Break
Is the landlord still a loser, do his signs hang in the hall
Are the young girls still as pretty in the city in the fall
Does the laughter on their faces still put the sun to shame
And by the way -- did she mention my name
Did she mention my name just in passing
And when the talk ran high, did the look in her eye seem far away
Is the old roof still leaking when the late snow turns to rain
And by the way - did she mention my name
Did she mention my name just in passing
And looking at the rain, do you remember if she dropped a name or two
Won't you say hello from someone, they'll be no need to explain
And by the way - did she mention my name
And by the way - did she mention my name
