Empty pockets and a broken hearts
That's what you get when lovers part
You take your money and you beg your kids
With your worries and worn out face
They don't want to have you around
You don't like the friends that she found
You'll be on your own tonight
It'll be alright
Cause your closing the pages of your history book
And the last one says that you've run out of luck
But she can't sew and you can't cook
So the time has come to get you off the hook
No money and you've got less sense
Always sitting up on a fence
Someday baby you'll make up your mind
And you'll be surprised at what you find
They don't want to have you around
You don't like the friends that she found
You'll be on your own tonight
It'll be alright
Cause your closing the pages of your history book
And the last one says that you've run out of luck
But she can't sew and you can't cook
So the time has come to get you off the hook
Get you off the hook
Bad news and there making head
Trying to forget the things you've said
You get up later everyday
Functioning the same old way
They don't want to have you around
You don't like the friends that she found
You'll be on your own tonight
It'll be alright
Cause your closing the pages of your history book
And the last one says that you've run out of luck
But she can't sew and you can't cook
So the time has come to get you off the hook
Get you off the hook
