She Let Herself Go

Hey, you wondered how she'd take it when he said goodbye

Thought she might do some cryin', lose some sleep at night

But he had no idea when he hit the road

That without him in her life, she'd let herself go

Let herself go on a singles cruise

To Vegas once then to Honolulu

Let herself go to New York City

A week at the Spa, came back knocked-out pretty

When he said he didn't love her no more

She let herself go

She poured her heart and soul into their three-bedroom ranch

Spent her days raisin' babies, ironin' his pants

Came home one day from the grocery store and found his note

And without him there to stop her, she let herself go

Let herself go on her first blind date

Had the time of her life with some friends at the lake

Let herself go, buy a brand new car

Drove down to the beach, he always said was too far

Sand sure felt good between her toes

She let herself go on a singles cruise

To Vegas once then to Honolulu

Let herself go to New York City

A week at the Spa, came back knocked-out pretty

When he said he didn't love her no more

She let herself go

To Vegas once

Honolulu

New York City

Came back knocked-out pretty
