Lyrics for Just Because
Ah, remember this? Why, I must have been thirteen when this came out Or was it fourteen? Or was it twenty-two? I could have been twelve actually Just because you left and said goodbye Do you think that I will sit and cry? Even if my heart should tell me so Darlin', I would rather let you go Just because I want someone who's kind With a heart as good and pure as mine But maybe I am askin' far too much Darlin', please don't ever break my heart I know you think you're smart Just runnin' around and breakin' lovers' hearts Just because you left and said goodbye, hey Do you think that I will sit and cry? Even if my heart should tell me so Darlin', I would rather let you go Woo-oo, hoo Since you've been gone You just got a soul vibe Why the last time I saw you You're wearin' man's clothes Not that I am prejudiced 'Cause, you know I had problems with the zipper But who am I to hassle you like this? I'm just gonna have to let you go There's two basses in this I hope you appreciate it This is Dr. Winston O' Boogie sayin' "Goodnight" From Record Plant East, New York We hope you had a swell time Ev'rybody here say "Hi" Goodbye Just because you left and said goodbye Do you think that I will sit and cry? Even if my heart should tell me so Darlin', I would rather let you go Woo-oo, hoo Goodbye Woo-oo, hoo-oo-oo So long Been a long year
