The Dumb Thing    (1973)

Me and this ole heart of mine really have a time
Of course it always leads me around just like I was blind
And it keeps on a tellin' me to find somebody new
And it's sorry for all the troubles it's put me through

Then the dumb thing starts hurting and making me feel blue
When the dumb thing starts crying I don't know what to do
But the dumb thing keeps telling me to find somebody new
And the dumb thing keeps reminding me of you

We went to a party and we had a ball last night
We danced with all the pretty girls and we held them tight
But when the party was over and me and my heart got home
I hadn't more than closed the door when everything went wrong

Then the dumb thing starts hurting and making me feel blue
When the dumb thing starts crying I don't know what to do
But the dumb thing keeps telling me to find somebody new
And the dumb thing keeps reminding me of you

I finally got myself in bed and just about asleep
I must have laid awake for hours and counted a thousand sheep
Then the feeling fell upon me just like a ton of lead
That old heart was acting up again, I sat straight up in bed

Then the dumb thing starts hurting and making me feel blue
When the dumb thing starts crying I don't know what to do
But the dumb thing keeps telling me to find somebody new
And the dumb thing keeps reminding me of you

Yeah, the dumb thing keep reminding me of you
