So you heard talking on the streets

All these things you can't believe

So you thought that you'd call me up to check and see

Say that you don't understand

It's not really who I am

But you left and you gave up your right to give a damn

When you went away

And now you say

It's not like me to drink alone

It's not like me to take her home

It's not like me

Oh but darling that ain't true

'Cause it's just like me without you

Just in case you're keeping score

You don't own me anymore

Things have changed since the day that you walked out my door

I did everything I could

When you were here to keep it good

Now I'm doing all the things you thought I never would

'Cause you wouldn't stay

It's not like me to drink alone

It's not like me to take her home

It's not like me to not be waiting by the telephone

It's not like me to mess around

It's not like me to wreck this town

It's not like me

Oh but darling that ain't true

'Cause it's just like me without you

It's not like me to drink alone

It's not like me to take her home

It's not like me to not be waiting by the telephone

It's not like me to mess around

It's not like me to wreck this town

It's not like me

Oh but darling that ain't true

'Cause it's just like me without you

Just like me without you

Oh it's just like me without you
