Lyrics Sittin' And Thinkin' - Elvis Costello, The Attractions

Sittin' And Thinkin'

I got loaded last night on a bottle of gin
And I had a fight with my best girlfriend
But when I’m drinking I am nobody’s friend
So please baby wait for me until they let me out again
I know the same thing has happened before
And each time it happens, I hate it more and more
But when I’m drinking I am nobody’s friend
So please baby wait for me until they let me out again
I spent a whole lot of time sittin' and thinkin'
Sittin' and just thinkin' about you
If I didn’t spend so much time sittin' and drinkin'
We’d still have the love I thought we knew
I won’t promise the same thing won’t happen again
But I can promise, it’ll be a long, long time till then
Because when I’m drinking I am nobody’s friend
So please baby wait for me until they let me out again
So please baby wait for me until they let me out again
So please baby wait for me until they let me out again
