This old bar stool's feelin' higher
'Cause I've started sinkin' lower
The minute that she waltzed right through that door
Not long ago I held her, like a fool I went and left her
Now she's with somebody new out on that floor
And she's got the rhythm and I got the blues
And she's showin' me how much I had to lose
With her every little move she's tellin' me I'm over you
She's got the rhythm, and I got the blues

Yee-haw
Well, that music's gettin' louder
As my heart keeps beatin' faster
She spells out regret in perfect time
Well, I thought I wanted freedom but that ball and chain, I need 'em
But when you choose, sometimes you lose the prize
'Cause she's got the rhythm and I got the blues
And she's showin' me how much I had to lose
With her every little move she's tellin' me I'm over you
She's got the rhythm, and I got the blues
Yeah, with her every little move she's tellin' me I'm over you
She's got the rhythm, and I got the blues
