Taking my business elsewhere

If she's not here by now then I guess she's not coming
If she's not here by now then I guess she don't care
Oh waiter, I won't waste your time anymore
You've already started to sweep down the floor
And I guess she's not coming so I'll head for the door
I'll be taking my business elsewhere

It wasn't for me, that spark in her eyes
It wasn't for me, that halo in her hair
When she touched me a lump rose up into my throat
But she must act that way with any old soak
And waiter, you don't seem to share in the joke
So I'll be taking my business elsewhere

She called me her fantasy and boldly she kissed me
I'll never get over the sheer surprise
Of her acting that way and I'm healing okay
But for the eyes of her

Oh it's cold in the rain and it's dark and it's sad
And I'll miss her tonight on my lonely back stair
I'm sorry for taking so much of your space
I'll move down the street to some friendlier place
'Cause I guess she's not coming and you're sick of my face
I'll be taking my business elsewhere

well done thank you for the lyrics...it help me to understand
I don't know half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.

I don't know the original, but I loved listening this. Great vocals chunk, and I dig the arpeggios on the guitar.

I too don't know the original Chunk,
But you have done a brilliant job on this.
Great vox, and a fantastic guitar tone, What are you playing it through?
well done.....
