It’s gettin’ old chasin’ Jeannie round
It’s gettin’ old chasin’ Jeannie round
The bartender tells me she’s confused right now
As she climbs a pole and she circles on down

And one of these days 
I’m gonna take that girl by the hand
And tell her exactly how I feel, like this;
“I will love and shelter you
And when you hurt 
I will heal with a kiss”

But until then, I’ll have to say it again

It’s gettin’ old chasin’ Jeannie round
It’s gettin’ old chasin’ Jeannie round

Jeannie tells me she’s happy to see me tonight
Jeannie says, “Sweetie I know what you like”
And as I reach into my pocket 
And pull out another bill
She reaches into my heart and pulls out my pride
She walks away without looking back
I sit and wonder what I lack

I wonder why she wears black

It’s gettin’ old
It’s gettin’ old
It’s gettin’ old
