My heart had been broken
And I couldn't take no more
I shuttered up my windows
And I bolted tight my door
Then I took one look at you
And I nearly lost my mind

Now I'm going 'round going 'round
Going 'round going around one more time
Yes I'm going 'roung going 'round
Going 'round goung around one more time

Betty was a little heartbreaker
It didn't quite work out
She did a number on my confidence
I was riddled with self doubt
I said that's it I'm through I quit
The juanita she looked so fine.

Now I'm going 'round going 'round
Going 'round going around one more time
Yes I'm going 'roung going 'round
Going 'round goung around one more time

'round and 'round in a circle
It's always the same
One moment you swear you've had enough
The next you've got to know her name

All on my own it wasn't that bad
I was getting by as I could get
I stopped into a drug store
For one pack of cigarettes
She did't have a quarter
Had to call her cousin kate
And could I lend her maybe
One thin dime

Now I'm going 'round going 'round
Going 'round going around one more time
Yes I'm going 'roung going 'round
Going 'round goung around one more time
