I Got A Lot Of Hurtin' Done Today

(album: I Got A Lot Of Hurtin' Done Today / I've Got My Baby On My Mind - 1975)

Today I read the phone book and I memorized some lines
I walked the floor a hundred miles to places in my mind
Then I cried some tears and tried to count them one by one
Oh, there's so many things you never get done

But I got some hurting done today
I got a lot of pain out of the way
I didn't get through missing you, but one thing I can say
I got a lot of hurting done today

I couldn't find the time to do some things I said I'd do
Like burn your photograph that's signed darling I love you
I didn't find the time to smile the minutes slipped away
There's just so many hours in a blue day

But I got some hurting done today
I got a lot of pain out of the way
I didn't get through missing you, but one thing I can say
I got a lot of hurting done today
I got a lot of hurting done today
