Sam Cooke
I’m Gonna Forget About You
[Verse 1]
I didn't sleep a wink all night long
Waitin' by my telephone
You said you'd call me 'bout a quarter to ten
But you went and stood me up again
[Hook]
I don't know what you're gonna do, but
I'm gonna forget about you, yeah
[Verse 2]
I'm gonna take your picture off my wall
And then I'm goin' out and have a ball
Too many fishes in the deep blue sea
For me to let you make a fool of me
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
Please don't tell me that you're sorry
Don't give me the same old line
I know for a fact if I took you back
You'd make me lose my mind, baby
And if I lost it, it would be my fault
So I think it's time we called a halt
I've had as much of you as I can stand
Instead of me mistreat some other man
[Hook]
[Verse 4]
Baby, I'm gonna take your picture off my wall
Then I'm goin' out and have a ball
Too many fishes in the deep blue sea
For me to let you make a fool of me
[Hook]
[Outro]
Yeah, forget about you baby
I'm gonna forget about you
I'm gonna forget about you, baby
I'm gonna forget about you
