I'm Alright Songtext
von Mose Allison

One, two, three, four

Woke up this mornin′, I didn't feel that bad
Last night was not the worst I ever had
I ate a nice dinner, drank a few drinks
I didn′t miss you, baby, no matter what you think
Went back to my hotel room, went straight to bed
Didn't moan, I didn't cry, I didn′t wish I was dead

I′m alright
I'm alright without you


I woke up this mornin′, I didn't have the blues
I pulled on my tube socks and laced my runnin′ shoes
Went to the reservoir to jog a mile or two
I didn't think about our love and I wasn′t missin' you
Went back to my hotel room, took some phone calls
Clean sheets on the bed and artwork on the wall

I'm alright
I′m alright without you

I woke up this afternoon and sat up in the bed
A gnawing in my gut and a pounding in my head
Went to the bathroom to the medicine chest
Sleeping pills and razor blades and all the rest
But I was in control, baby, I was so relaxed
I found myself some dental floss, my favorite unwaxed

I′m alright
I'm alright without you
I′m alright
I'm alright
I′m alright
I'm alright without you
