This old bar stool's feelin' higher 'Cause I've started sinkin' lower The minute that she waltzed right through that door Not long ago I held her, like a fool I went and left her Now she's with somebody new out on that floor And she's got the rhythm and I got the blues And she's showin' me how much I had to lose With her every little move she's tellin' me I'm over you She's got the rhythm, and I got the blues Yee-haw ♪ Well, that music's gettin' louder As my heart keeps beatin' faster She spells out regret in perfect time Well, I thought I wanted freedom but that ball and chain, I need 'em But when you choose, sometimes you lose the prize 'Cause she's got the rhythm and I got the blues And she's showin' me how much I had to lose With her every little move she's tellin' me I'm over you She's got the rhythm, and I got the blues Yeah, with her every little move she's tellin' me I'm over you She's got the rhythm, and I got the blues
