Saving Lots of Money

Wanted your time, to be free
Your freedom so did not include me
But I’m doing fine on my own
Lots of money, I’m adding on

Out to dinner several times a week
To the grocery store for extra treats
And on the weekends sometimes meats
All those extras you’re saving me

I’m saving lots of money
Now that you’re not my honey
You think that might be funny
It’s enough to get me to someplace sunny

Ice cream always and dessert too 
Sometimes driving out to Scoops
All that money and gas I’m saving
Now that I’m out and living free

No more grabbing something for you
When I’m shopping at the Walmart too
Would always love to bring for you
Something to know I’m thinking of you

I’m saving lots of money
Now that you’re not my honey
You think that might be funny
It’s enough to get me to someplace sunny
