Lyrics
Glad Man
Words and Music by Wolff Bowden © 2007 ASCAP
Woo hooo oooooooo. Woo hooo hooo hooo.
I can hear my neighbor’s windchimes they are chimin’ in the night
and you won’t be here tomorrow though you were here tonight.
And I’m a sad, sad man, saddest man I ever been.
I can see you in your nightclothes I can feel you next to me.
When it’s time for you to go I curl up in the sheets.
And I’m a sad, sad man, saddest man there’s ever been.
Woo hooo oooooooo. Woo hooo hooo hooo.
I listen to the whippoorwills in the woods outside my house.
I don’t want you someday, baby I want you right now.
And I’m a sad, sad man, saddest man I ever been.
You’ll be back again love when your hard work is done
until then I close my eyes I cannot stand the sun.
And I’m a sad, sad man, saddest man there’s ever been.
Woo hooo oooooooo. Woo hooo hooo hooo.
And though it’s only Thursday night I know it won’t be long
‘till you’re right-here-with-me in this room till you’re right here in my arms.
And I’m a glad, glad man, gladdest man I ever been.
I can hear my neighbor’s windchimes they are chimin’ in the night
and you’ll be here tomorrow though you were not here tonight.
And I’m a glad, glad man, gladdest man there’s ever been.
Woo hooo oooooooo. Woo hooo hooo hooo.
