Thanks For Nothin' - Concrete Cowboys Lyrics

Thanks For Nothin'

Well the bank called this mornin’ and they told me the news
That you’re now the proud owner of whatever you choose
Between the cars and the mortgage, I’ll just wish you the best
But to help me start over I have one small request…

Chorus:
I’ll take a penny for the heart you broke
I think that’s only fair
It ain’t worth a penny more you know
Since you’re not there I’ll take a penny for the troubled mind
And another for the tears I’ve cried
A little somethin’ to ease the fall
Thanks for nothin’ at all

Well I sat down last night and I worked up the figures
Just what you have cost me over sixteen-odd years
And it may sound cold-hearted but I thought you should know
Just how much I’m losin’ and how much you owe…

Repeat Chorus
