Theres a knot in my stomach
Its been there so long
I barely notice it
Till Im alone
All my friends tell me
Though it cant be true
That knot in my stomach
Is there cause of you
Id like to believe
It was something I ate
In Dallas in 1978
Raw oysters raw oysters
And a barbecue plate
Now the doctor wont tell me
The right pill to take
He said if you never knew love
Well I might be wrong
But if you had true love
And its come and gone
Its takes your heart
But it leaves something too
That knot in your stomach
Is what it left you
You can take it from me son
Cause Ive got one too
Well my hands wont quit shaking
Theres a twitch in my eye
Every few days some new symptom arrives
Except for these few things my body wont do
Im fairly certain that Im over you
Friends if you never knew love
Turn off this song
But if you've had true love
And its come and gone
Id have to say theres a good chance that you
Got a knot in your stomach to look forward to
Theres a knot in my stomach
Its been there so long
I barely notice it
Till Im alone
