For Lovin' Me

(album: Lightfoot! - 1966)

That's what you get for loving me
That's what you get for loving me
Ev'ry thing you had is gone
As you can see
That's what you get for loving me
I ain't the kind to hang around
With any new love that I found
'Cause moving is my stock in trade
I'm moving on
I won't think of you when I'm gone.

So don't you shed a tear for me
B'cause I ain't the love you thought I'd be
I got a hundred more like you
So don't be blue
I'll have a thousand 'fore I'm through

Now there you go you're crying again
Now there you go you're crying again
But then someday when your poor heart
Is on the mend
Well I just might pass this way again

That's what you get for loving me
That's what you get for loving me
Everything you had is gone
As you can see
That's what you get for loving me
That's what you get for loving me
