Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We had so many good times and some bad
We shared the happiness, shared the sad
We suffered all, all the miseries
Back when I had you, girl, you had me
[Verse 2]
But when you saw somethin' fresh
You wanted next to your pretty little flesh
Like a sewer in the rain, it all went down the drain
You and I
[Verse 3]
My life is so empty, what can I do?
I ain't got nobody, hey, nobody take the place of you
And I'm not so strong, honey, as I used to be
Back when I had you, baby, and you had me
[Verse 4]
Then you saw somethin' fresh
You wanted next to your pretty little flesh
Like the sewer when it rains, it all went down the drain
You and I, for you and I
[Verse 5]
You played the game, pick and choose
Yesterday I sang a love song, baby, now I'm singin' the blues
And I'm not so strong as I used to be
Back when I had you, baby, and you had me
[Verse 6]
But when you saw somethin' fresh
You wanted next to your pretty little flesh
Like a sewer in the rain, it all went down the drain
You and I, for you and I
[Verse 7]
What can I do? What can I do
Take the place of you?
Like a sewer when it rains, you know it all went down the drain
For you and I, you and I
Mmm, you and I
You and I
