Oh, it's a world full of cocktails at nine
Till every thing's gone and then
But now in the meantime
There's my fellow with the world for me to see
I wake up to find that I'm a stranger
Then back at the party, I'll be hearty
I'm a girl with a world of her own
And listen to the rhythm
It's payin' dues, but I got news
While waitin' for some better news
And late in the evening when I'm mellow
Mister, I'm payin' dues
Dinners and wine and very late shows
And where the crowd goes
But now I know that he'll be coming back no more
I'm telling you 'bout this bag of blues
I walk in a daze and then I'm back to my apartment
In a world where I have never been before
We're gonna cool it now
And doze on the sofa till eleven
That you hardly know it's me
A queen on her throne
I'm gonna make me some changes
Then get up and pour myself another drink
My suburban friends don't know my bag of blues
And would you believe it, I'm so urban
Speakin' 'bout bag of blues
Where I'll grab another wink
I'm up in the mornin' on the corner so sedated
I'll just sit right here and cool it
I look for the man who held my hand
Gimme that, I really want that
Listen I'm changin' shoes
