Lyrics:
Well I done got over it
Lord I done got over it
You know I done got over it
Well I done got over it
Well I done got over it
I done got over it at last

I remember the day that I met you
You seemed such a sweet little thing
But after a while you got so bad
You know it was a cryin' shame

But I done got over it
Lord I done got over it
Well I done got over it
I done got over it at last

I was so in love I was miserable
All though I know my love was in vain
Cause every time I turned my back
You was out with some other man

But I done got over it
Lord I done got over it
Well I done got over it
I done got over it at last

I didn't want you to be no angel
Well even though a gal with jive
All I wanted was some good woman
Just to keep me satified

But I done got over it
Lord I done got over it
Well I done got over it
I done got over it at last
