Whatshername Lyrics

    Jimmy mcgregor, hey, jimmy, come here!
    Jimmy you son of a gun!
    What 'cha been doin'? how long has it been?
    Hell, seven years if it's been one.

    How's the preacher? how's don, did he go back to school?
    (no kidding, i thought he was gay!)
    Who me? oh, i'm great! i'm a father you know.
    Yeah, two of 'em and one on the way.

    Oh, well, she couldn't make it, she gets pretty tired,
    She started her last month today.
    I only came up for a couple of minutes,
    Believe me, i wish i could stay.

    Oh, and yeah while i think of it, do you remember,
    Not for myself, for a friend.
    A girl that i brought here, before i got married
    A couple of times at the end.

    Whatshername? she hardly knew me;
    Now her name means something to me.
    I wonder if she ever got over me?

    Anyway i should be flattered
    For yesterday at least i mattered
    Where did it go?

    Jimmy i tell you we're two lucky guys
    You've got everything that you've planned.
    And all things considered i've done fairly well
    I mean god's honest truth, man
    I love ruth and whatshername?

    I thought i knew her, whatshername?
    What happened to her,
    I don't know why i'll never forget
    Whatshername?
