I met her one evenin' in a bar room downtown   She was the picture of truth   Her shoulders were sagged and her head was bowed down   Like me she was livin' the blues      When the music had ended and the crowd dwindled down   And we were the last lonely two   We left with each other when nothin' was left   And nothin' left better to do      And it was fun while it lasted but it didn't last long   Before we knew it the thrill was all gone   And we both wound up singin' the same lonesome song   It was fun while it lasted, but it didn't last long      I had a woman and she had a man   Before we both lost it all   When I thought of her that's when she thought of him   And I never could stand that thought      It was fun while it lasted but it didn't last long   Before the mornin' I'd packed up and gone   And we said goodbye singin' the same worn out song   It was fun while it lasted but it didn't last long
