Reba McEntire - What Am I Gonna Do About You Lyrics

 

The kid down the street mowes the grass every week

The neighbor next door fixed the roof where it leaked

Job's going fine and the bills are all paid

And everyone thinks that I'm doing OK

 

There's a guy down at work

He's asked me out once or twice

I haven't said yes

But I'm thinking I might

And on my way home I thought I saw you walk by

If only I could get you out of my mind

 

What in the world am I gonna do about you

Oh your memory keeps coming back

From out of the blue

Oh well I try

And I try

But I still can't believe that we're through

So tell me what in the world am I gonna do about you

What am I gonna do about you

 

I went to the store

But it wasn't much fun

It doesn't take long when you're shopping for one

Standing in line I thought I saw you walk in

And that's when it started all over again

 

What in the world am I gonna do about you

Oh your memory keeps coming back

From out of the blue

Oh well I try

And I try

But I still can't believe that we're through

So tell me what in the world am I gonna do about you

What am I gonna do about you

Darling what am I gonna do about you
