"Jim Song" lyrics - DR. DOG

Well, ever since she went away I've been a mess inside
And there's nothing you could do to get me satisfied
And my heart's turned against me and it won't abide
But I don't really miss her like I miss my pride

Well there's a weight on my back and there's a thorn in my side
There's a stone in my chest where my heart should reside
And peace of mind is more than even she could provide
But I don't want her back like I want my pride

[Chorus:]
Well, I know I'll find another
I know we wasn't meant for each other
But oh, all that love in vain
She was so quick to recover
Was I just some two-bit lover?
If she would suffer she would ease my pain

Well, in no time flat she found a faster ride
She took the first good-looker and she opened wide
While I've been suffering alone in the great divide
But I don't really need her like I need my pride

Well, I drive by her house to see his bike outside
And I dream every night it's someone else's pride
But if I tell you she's the one then you know I've lied
'Cause I don't really love her like I love my pride

[Chorus:]
Well, I know I'll find another
I know we wasn't meant for each other
But oh, all that love in vain
She was so quick to recover
Was I just some two-bit lover?
If she would suffer she would ease my pain
