Did She Mention My Name - Dr. John

That's what you get for lovin' me That's what you get for lovin' me Everything you had is gone as you can see That's what you get for lovin' me I ain't the kind to hang around With any new love that I found Since movin' is my stock in trade,I'm movin' on I won't think of you when I'm gone So don't you shed a tear for me Because 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 That's what you get for lovin' me That's what you get for lovin' me Everything you had is gone As you can see That's what you get for lovin' me It's so nice to meet an old friend and pass the time of day And talk about the home town a million miles away Is the ice still in the river, are the old folks still the same And by the way, did she mention my name Did she mention my name just in passing And when the morning came, do you remember if she dropped a name or two Is the home team still on fire, do they still win all the games And by the way, did she mention my name Did she mention my name just in passing And when the talk ran high, did the look in her eye seem far away Won't you say hello from someone, they'll be no need to explain And by the way, did she mention my name

Did I mention that I'm in love with you? And did I mention there's nothing I can do And did I happen to say? I dream of you everyday But let me shout it out loud, if that's okay ay ay If that's okay (Hey!) I met this girl that rocked my world like it's never been rocked And now I'm living just for her and I won't never stop I never thought that it could happen to a guy like me But now look at what you've done, you got me down on my knees Because my love for you is ridiculous I never knew (Who knew?) That it could be like this My love for you is ridiculous My love is R-I-D-I-C-U-L-O-U-S! (R-I-D-I-C-U-L-O-U-S!) It's (Ridiculous!) Just (Ridiculous!) And I would give my kingdom for just one kiss Well did I mention that I'm in love with you And did I mention there's nothing I can do And did I happen to say?

If that's okay I gotta know which way to go, c'mon gimme a sign You gotta show me that you're only ever gonna be mine Don't want to go another minute livin' without you Cause if your heart just isn't in it, I don't know what I'd do Because my love for you is ridiculous I never knew (Who knew?)

Time goes by And every single tear It must have well run dry And the lonely nights Become a strange accepted way And the years go past Just like the old song says The pain with time has healed It could not last But oh a friend Like a fool mentions your name Sunny days, drunken nights You smile and say It's all right But oh the cold, cold rain At the mention of your name Forgive me please If I shrug my shoulders When I put my friends at ease As I get older It's not that I don't feel colder than before Oh I've become so good at hiding What I feel without confiding It's still the same At the mention of your name
