(Good Lord, May God have mercy on my soul)
|
I love her, but you never would know
|
That by the way I just let my girl go
|
With tears in her eyes from years of the lyin?
She backed on up and disappeared down the drive-
|
Way, hey, what can I say, all we have is nothing today
|
I did my thing, and she did hers,
|
But my crime's a wee bit worse
|
And now I'm sitting her all alone with my guilt
|
Just me and the dogs and home that we built
|
It was then it was hers, even though Bubba bought it
|
But Bubba wouldn't leave just like her mother called it
|
From the P, hold it to the blue flame
|
God, forgive me for causing you pain
|
All it was, ain't no more, cause my babys gone
|
And when it rains it pours.
|
|
[Chorus]
|
She tried to tell me I needed to be strong
|
I wasn't listening, and now my baby's gone
|
|
One for the pleasure, two for the sin
|
Three for the family we coulda been
|
Had I not been so concerned
|
With this life no spoken words
|
Couldn't begin to undue what's done
|
Deep within I know that you must run
|
Far away, from the thought of my smile
|
And the broken dream of us walking that isle
|
I first saw betty in my nanny white's yard...
|
The breast where the best, and the fanny “my lord?
I fly country girl, just working them gifts
|
She's my queen, was a virgin I guess
|
But I ain't never ask, and ain't never tell
|
But Betty had the cash every time I went to jail
|
And how did I reward her loyalty
|
Let her walk in and see her cousin Joy on me
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
It's been six months, and still no word
|
I try to carry on like it still don't hurt
|
Hoes come around, but I still wont?flirt
|
Drinking worse, and the pills don't work
|
Last I heard she was in Birmingham
|
Living with a good hard working man
|
And lookin?back on it, that's exactly what she wanted
|
Not a rebel with a passion for the moment
|
I live for the fiddle, and a kick, and a snare
|
I take my love and I stick it in there
|
Moved a jimmy and made this song
|
All because my baby is gone
|
