The Aftermath — Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band

Dressed up to the nines Dancin' three-quarter time The champagne is on ice No one's gonna guess In your brand new dress Girl, you sure look nice

Have a good time Honey, don't look back Stone in the middle of the aftermath

Don't wink, don't blink Don't let `em think His leavin's got you down Stand straight, hang tough When they bring it up Baby hold your ground

If they pry, don't sigh Pass it off with a laugh It's all part of living through the aftermath

You can do it honey Keep that smile so sunny You can show them what they want to see Yes, you can

It's a cold, hard scene The singles thing Losers everywhere And it hurts to the bone Headin' home alone When someone used to be there

So you take a few falls And you learn to bounce back It's all part of living through the aftermath

Living through the aftermath Baby, don't look back It's the aftermath
