I'M Still Jonesin' For You
They say that time is supposed to be the best healer
But she just stopped loving me today
The jukebox is torture for this now lonely man
With every old sad song it plays
The bartender keeps serving me whiskey
While I try to go cold turkey on you
But it's a hard pill to swallow, and my heart feels hollow
Cause I'm still Jonesin' for you
I'm still Jonesin' for you
And these speakers keep calling to me
That steel guitar whine, gets me everytime
And I'm still Jonesin' for you
With my heartache and this pounding head
I think I'd probably be better off dead
Because of your leaving, I'm stuck her grieving
And I'm still Jonesin' for you
Never has an artist wrote feelings
That explain just what I've been through
I usually play E11, but that is the Hag
And the Possums on B22
I'm still Jonesin' for you
And this barstools become more like home
It welcomes me in, with a beer and a gin
And I'm still Jonesin' for you
His songs speak straight to my heart
And his words make me fight back a tear
Still why you left me, isn't easy to see
But it's slowly becoming more clear
So go, if you feel, that you must
But know that I'll still be right here
If you should change your mind, I'll be easy to find
Still Jonesin' for you my dear
I'm still Jonesin' for you
As this broken old heart tries to mend
But if you come inside, I'll probably need a ride
As I sit here Jonesin' for you
I may never get over what you put me through
I'll just be here Jonesin' for you
Till I figure out just what to do....
