Button Off My Shirt

I heard the word goin' 'round town

They say that you're makin' a fool out of me

Baby it took me some time to come around

To realise you were not what you seemed

Each day's passin', the clock's been my friend

Help me get back on my feet again

Like the button off-a my shirt, just an every day distraction

Your just a button off-a my shirt and someday I will replace you

I don't care what I have lost, you got what you deserve

I was down, down, down, I was down

I don't care what I have lost, you got what you deserve

Love and affection - you started

Changing direction - you threw it away-ay (down, down, down)

Like the button off-a my shirt, just an every day distraction

You'd be over reactin' if you think that I still hurt

You're just a button off-a my shirt and someday I will replace you

I don't care what I have lost, you got what you deserve

Like the button off-a my shirt, just an every day distraction

You'd be over reactin' if you think that I still hurt

You're just a button off-a m
