Low All Afternoon

Weeping willow, don't you cry on your pillow
It ain't just you he's letting down
You heard that she gave him an ultimatum
And she's wearing his ring now

It's a hard pill to swallow
He's a hard act to follow
And there's no consolation prize
For the other women
You're the one he wouldn't commit to for more than a night

He's tying the knot and you're tying one on
He got what he wanted from the one he didn't want
He's ready to settle down now that he's messed around with you
Weeping willow, you're gonna hang low all afternoon

You should have known he didn't have the backbone
To come clean like he said he needed to
He'll make a house a home
Wasn't that long ago when he was going home with you

He's tying the knot and you're tying one on
He got what he wanted from the one he didn't want
He's ready to settle down now that he's messed around with you
Weeping willow, you're gonna hang low all afternoon

Ooh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Ooh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

When he comes around, you won't be around
He ain't worth it now, he never was
Hold your head up high, you're better 'cause

He's tying the knot and you're tying one on
He got what he wanted from the one he didn't want
He's ready to settle down now that he's messed around
He won't mess around with you
Weeping willow, don't you hang low all afternoon

Ooh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Ooh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
