I’m not the first guy who ever lost a girlfriend

But by the way I’m carrying on

You’d think I was you’d think I’d lost my mind

Since you’ve been gone

Why can’t I just walk away

You know people do things a lot harder every day

And somehow they make it look so easy



Chorus:

Mark McGwire does it with a baseball bat

Dale Jarret does it on the race car track

Tom Hanks sure knows how to act

And he makes it look easy

Dan Rather does it on the evening news

Ray Charles does it when he’s singing the blues

The great ones do it any time they choose

So why can’t I forget you

And make it look easy



I’ve got a secret and I want to keep it

So I try to be cool

I don’t wanna show want no one to know

That I’ll always be your fool

I wish that I could just walk away

People do things a lot harder every day

And you know they make it look so easy



Chorus:

Michael Jordan did it and he carried the team

Spielberg does it on the movie screen

Oprah she’s the TV queen

And she makes it look easy

Tiger Woods does it with a little golf ball

Seems like Elway did it every fall

The great ones do it any time they choose

So why can’t I forget you

And make it look easy



Princess Di she did it with class

Leno knows the right questions to ask

Nolan Ryan did it with a pitch so fast

That he made it look easy

Chet Atkins does it with a guitar pick

Wayne Gretsky did it with a hockey stick

The great ones do it anytime they choose

So why can’t I forget you

And make it look easy
