Something I Do for Me

I work overtime cause my boss is a jerk
It gets him off my back
I go to see my momma right after work
So she knows where Im at
Stop by my sisters and I hug her neck
Tell her just let that guy go
But theres a few things I do
When Im all by myself
That nobody knows
Its just somethin I do for me
Sometimes when I cant sleep
I get in my car and drive down your street
Its just somethin I do for me
I did everything that a man could do
To try and make you smile
I couldnt keep love from slippin away
But I slowed it down a while
When you finally told me that youd had enough
Well it broke my heart into
So I swallowed my pride
Walked out of your life
I did that for you
But theres somethin I do for me
Sometimes I really need
Sit in a bar drown some old memories
Its just somethin I do for me
I know these things might all seem strange
But somehow they get me by
This smile on my face is hidin the trace of teardrops
In my eyes
Its just somethin I do for me
Sometimes when noone sees
I talk to the man, I get down on my knees
Its just somethin I do for me.
