(Intro)
I took a long stretch of highway
Put a thousand miles behind me
I knew, I had the fine peace of mind
I got a new job in Dallas
And a two room bachelor palace
For where I sit Ithe think
I'm doin' alright
(Chorus)
Except for the whiskey in my life
Except for the lonely I feel every night
Except for the way
I miss holdin' you tight
Except for the way I dont sleep anymore
Since that day you walked out my door
Except for the time spent walking on the floor
I'm doin' alright
(Verse)
I watch the sun rise on the new day
I think things could start goin' in my way
The clouds are gone and I can see a big blue sky
I wonder how you're doin' without me
And if you every think about me
If I had the chance I'd tell ya
I'm doin' alright
(Chorus)
Except for the whiskey in my life
Except for the lonely I feel every night
Except for the way
I miss holdin' you tight
Except for the way I dont sleep anymore
Since that day you walked out my door
Except for the time spent walking on the floor
I'm doin' alright
(Bridge)
Except for the way I dont sleep anymore
Since that day you walked out my door
Except for the time spent walking on the floor
I'm doin' alright
(Chorus)
Except that you don't love me no more
I'm doin' alright
