He wondered how she'd take it when he said goodbye.
|
Thought she might do some cryin'... lose some sleep at night.
|
But he had no idea, when he hit the road,
|
That without him in her life, she'd let herself go.
|
|
Let herself go on a singles cruise,
|
To Vegas once, then to Honolulu.
|
Let herself go to New York City...
|
A week at the Spa; came back knocked-out pretty.
|
When he said he didn't love her no more,
|
She let herself go.

|
|
She poured her heart an' soul into their three-bedroom ranch.
|
Spent her days raisin' babies, ironin' his pants.
|
Came home one day from the grocery store and found his note,
|
And without him there to stop her, she let herself go.
|
|
Let herself go on her first blind-date...
|
Had the time of her life with some friends at the lake.
|
Let herself go, buy a brand new car,
|
Drove down to the beach he always said was too far.
|
Sand sure felt good between her toes...
|
|
She let herself go on a singles cruise,
|
To Vegas once, then to Honolulu.
|
Let herself go to New York City...
|
A week at the Spa; came back knocked-out pretty.
|
When he said he didn't love her no more,
|
She let herself go.
|
|
To Vegas once... Honolulu, New York City.
|
Came back knocked-out pretty.
