Uh huh, uh huh, gonna get along without you now
Uh huh my honey, uh huh my honey,
Gonna get along without you now

You told me I was the neatest thing
You even asked me to wear your ring
You ran around with every girl in town
You never cared if it got me down

Uh huh, uh huh, gonna get along without you now.
Uh huh my honey, uh huh my honey,
Gonna get along without you now

Got along without you before I met you
Gonna get along without you now
Gonna find somebody who's twice as cute
'Cause I didn't like you anyhow

You told everybody that we were friends
But this is where our friendship ends
'Cause all of a sudden you changed your tune
You haven't been around since way last June.

Uh huh, uh huh, gonna get along without you now.
Got along without you before I met you
Gonna get along without you now

So long my honey
Goodbye my dear
Gonna get along without you now


*****


As sung by Teresa Brewer :


Got along without ya before I met ya
Gonna get along without ya now.
Gonna find somebody twice as cute
`Cause ya didn't love me anyhow.
You ran around with ev'ry girl in town
And ya never cared if it got me down.
You had me worried always on my guard.
But ya laughed at me `cause I tried so hard.
Boom, boom. Boom, boom.
Gonna get along without ya now.
Boom, boom. Boom, boom.
Gonna get along without ya now.

Got along without ya before I met ya
Gonna get along without ya now.
Gonna find somebody twice as cute
`Cause ya didn't love me anyhow.
I lost my money and I lost my pride
Didn't have much money, but I really tried.
It made you happy when you made me cry.
And ya broke my heart so I said goodbye.
Boom, boom. Boom, boom.
Gonna get along without ya now.
Boom, boom. Boom, boom.
Gonna get along without ya now.
