[Verse 1]
Sittin' on the steps on 42nd Street
Talkin' to a friend of mine
Brothas rollin' by asking what's been up with me
"Why ain't you been hangin' out?"
[Chorus]
I've been doin' time
Me and this heart of mine trying to get over you
I've been doin' time
Gotta spend the rest of life trying to get over
[Verse 2]
Somebody's rolling dice and let me in the game
Seven finally comes around
When I threw the snake eyes, it's when I had to face
I've been losing all around
[Chorus]
I've been doin' time
Me and this heart of mine trying to get over you
I've been doin' time
Gotta spend the rest of life trying to get over
[Chorus]
I've been doin' time
Me and this heart of mine trying to get over you
I've been doin' time
Gotta spend the rest of my life
[Bridge]
Avoiding holding out, I don't wanna see your face
No telling just what I'll do
Sometimes I get so angry
Cause I can't replace all the things you used to do
[Outro]
Do, do, do, doin' time (Doin' time with you on my mind)
Trying to get over you
Do, do, do, doin' time (Gonna spend the rest of my life)
I've been doin' time
Do, do, do, doin' time (Oh you got me doin', say you got me doin')
I've been doin' time
Do, do, do, doin' time
