Chance of a Lifetime

I came staggerin' in, in the middle of the night
I got my alibi sewed up nice and tight
Cracked the bedroom door
I tried to keep it from squeakin'
'Cause I know there's a wildcat in there sleepin'
But the, the light was on and the bed was made
And there's a "Dear John" written on the pillow case

She said, "I've gone to the Bahamas
I've had it with the drama
Time to get out of town
I'm just a slowin' you down"
She said, "I found somebody
That likes the things that you used to"

Yeah and he's got a lot of money
We're goin' where it's sunny
And baby he's a looker too
She said it was a chance of a lifetime
"What was I supposed to do?"

Oh yeah, I woke up this mornin' in a terrible mess
I had the telephone ringin' and her cat on my chest
I'm wipin' the sleep out of my bloodshot eyes
Oh, it's gotta be her callin' to apologize
She must be feelin' bad 'cause she done me wrong
Then I, I pushed the button on the code-a-phone

She said, "I've gone to the Bahamas
I've had it with the drama
Time to get out of town
I'm just a slowin' you down"
She said, "I found somebody
That likes the things that you used to"

Yeah she said, "He's got a lot of money
We're goin' where it's sunny
And baby he's a looker too"
She said, "It was the chance of a lifetime
What was I supposed to do?"

Oh, and I got the stereo
And she got the music
Yeah and I got this washer
But I don't know how to use it

She's gone to the Bahamas
Had it with the drama
Time to get out of town
I'm just a slowin' you down
She said, "I found somebody
That likes the things that you used to"

Yeah she said, "He's got a lot of money
We're goin' where it's sunny
And baby he's a looker too"
She said, "It was a chance of a lifetime
What was I supposed to do?"

Oh yeah, it was a chance of a lifetime
What was I supposed to do?
Maybe you can come get this cat?
