Give Myself a Party
I've got a lot of memories to last me
the rest of my life
so if you don't wanna love me, baby
that'll be alright
I'm gonna take all the lovin' that I
have for you
gonna take all the loneliness an' sit
right down with the blues!
I'm gonna give myself a party, an'
serve old memories
give my self a party, think of how it
used to be
Remember all the happiness that once
we knew
gonna give myself a party, just me an'
the blues!
< instrumental break >
A few of your love letters, a
photograph or two
a gift you gave on my birthday with
words of "I love you"
There's lots of things to think about,
when you're feelin' blue
so I'm gonna take all the loneliness,
sit right down with the blues!
I'm gonna give myself a party, an'
serve old memories
give my self a party, think of how it
used to be
Remember all the happiness that once
we knew
I'm gonna give myself a party, just me
an' the blues!
. . . just me an' the blues!
