HOW ABOUT YOU
(Bobby Bare / Billy Joe Shaver)
Bobby Bare - 1970
Some people worry about tomorrow
Well, all of my worried days are through
'Cause I just got mine all together
How about you, girl, how about you
Those loose ends have really been a-draggin'
Since the day you said that we were through
But I managed to get mine all together
How about you, babe, how about you
How about your life back home with mama
Do you miss those things you've grown accustomed to
Well, I just thought I'd call to let you know I'm doin' fine
And findin' lots of different things to do
How about you, girl, how about you
Well, sometimes I sit here a-thinkin'
About those silly things we used to do
And it stirs up some old familiar feelin's
Now, how about you, girl, how about you
Yeah, how about your life back home with mama
Do you miss the things you've grown accustomed to
Well, I just thought I'd call to let you know I'm doin' fine
And findin' lots of different things to do
How about you, girl, how about you
How about you, girl, how about you
How about you, girl ........FADE
