Boy, I Really Tied One On [Live at the Sydney Opera House] Lyrics by Janis Ian

Remember...: Live in Concert, 1977

1977

[Verse 1]
Boy, I really tied one on
Spent the night away from home
I know you're not to blame
If I can't recall your name
And I'm sorry if it causes you pain
[Verse 2]
Boy, I really lost my head
I woke up in a double bed
Allow me the pleasure
Of taking your measure
Though I'm sure you ain't nobody's treasure
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know it isn't ladylike
To do what I've done tonight
[Chorus]
Wake up, I got news for you
Nobody's knockin' at your door
Nobody's gonna pull you through
Nobody needs you anymore, yeah yeah
Nobody's knockin' at your door
[Verse 3]
Boy, I went around the bend
Thought I'd made a lifelong friend
Imagine my surprise
When I lookеd into your eyes
And saw the kind of friеnds you meant
[Verse 4]
I think I'm gonna take the cure
I'm going on the wagon for sure
I may feel a fool
For a Sunday or two
But it's better than a Sunday with you
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know it isn't ladylike
To do what I've done tonight
[Chorus]
Wake up, I got news for you
Nobody's knockin' at your door
Nobody's gonna pull you through
Nobody needs you anymore, yeah yeah
Nobody's knockin' at your door
Wake up, I got news for you
Nobody's knockin' at your door
