So you heard talking on the street
All these things you can't believe
So you thought that you would call me up to check and see
Say that you don't understand
That's not really who I am
But you left and you gave up your right to give a damn
When you went away
But 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
Because 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
Because 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
Because it's just like me without you
