JOE DIFFIE
"Startin' Over Blues"
(Sanger D. Shafer / Lonnie Williams)

I put my beer down somewhere
I'll find it if I can
One thing that woman couldn't handle
Is an absent minded man
Now I'm sittin' here wonderin'
Where she is
When I'm the one that's lost
Since she's been gone
Lord, I just keep driftin' off

[Chorus:]
I got the startin' over blues
Sometimes I don't know where to start
Last time I started over
I think I started over
Down at my friendly one bar
I got a pillow here and a curtain there
And a utensil too
There ain't nothin' worse
Than these old startin' over blues
Yodel-eh-ee-oh, startin' over blues
Now I know what the word apartment means
'Cause I'm apart from everything
That meant everything to me
If I been here a day or three
Oh I'm all messed up
Me and this new place
Could sure use a woman's touch

[Chorus:]
I got the startin' over blues
Sometimes I don't know where to start
Last time I started over
I think I started over
Down at my friendly one bar
I got a pillow here and a curtain there
And a utensil too
There ain't nothin' worse
Than these old startin' over blues
Yodel-eh-ee-oh, startin' over blues
I got a pillow here and a curtain there
And a utensil too
There ain't nothin' worse
Than these old startin' over blues
Yodel-eh-ee-oh, startin' over blues
