Nitty Gritty

Well if you didn't love me, wish you'd had told me
I wouldn't have even let it throw me
But when we got down to New York City
I got down to the nitty gritty

Well, I didn't mean to bring you down now
I guess I got to be myself now
'Cause I sure can't be nobody else now
They say that I'm a millionaire now

Well, you told me just outside of Austin
That you would stick with me 'til Boston
But a little movie star from the city
Well, he took away my nitty gritty

Well if you didn't love me, wish you'd had told me
I wouldn't have even let it throw me
But when we got down to New York City
I got down to the nitty gritty

Well, I didn't mean to bring you down now
I guess I got to be myself now
'Cause I sure can't be nobody else now
They say that I'm a millionaire now

Well if you didn't love me, wish you'd had told me
I wouldn't have even let it throw me
But when we got down to New York City
I got down to the nitty gritty

Well, I didn't mean to bring you down now
I guess I got to be myself now
'Cause I sure can't be nobody else now
They say that I'm a millionaire now
