Oh she just walked out the door and I know she won't be back anymore. The echo of her footsteps have gone and now I feel a cry coming on. Her picture on the table smiles at me the sweet tender love is there to see.
I've known all alone that you had leavin' on your mind. My questions had been answered by the look that's in your eyes. Any day now you'll come to me and I know just what you'll say.
Did you notice when I see you I can smile and that be's how I used to be by a mile. I don't care as much don't need you as much and I'm starting to go out.
I can see your face upon the windshield as I'm rollin' through the night. You're sittin' by a fire with a fuzzy blanket wrapped around you tight. This is just a short run and I'll be home in just a week or two.
Early morning clear my head I can't remember what we said. All that I remember is the pain. Your actions made your feelings know the feeling that you had was gone.
She's been around me all the while. Try as I might, I can't forget her smile. In passing conversation, what did I hear her say?. Where did she come from? Who is that woman anyway?.
My mama told me, the old sayin' is. If there's a will, son there's got to be a way na, na. Mama, I got the will but I can't find my way, now, no, no. Let me tell you, man.
I'll be yours my love (I'll be yours). We'll stay together forever. I'll be yours my love (I'll be yours). And it will be like heaven. To stay in your arms, oh-oh (in your arms).
I never thought you'd go and leave me all by myself.. I never thought you'd go and leave me here on the shelf.. You hear me talkin'?. But who ever thought you need me?.
Come on (come on let me show you where it's at). Ah, come on (come on let me show you where it's at). Whoa!, come on (come on let me show you where it's at).
Hey, I feel lonely. But I got so many different women on my mind. It's so cool to be kind. . Why do you keep on running?. Why do you keep on humming?.
Like a liar, like a thief. Like a worn-torn child who needs release. I'm feeling hazy force from the blow. I just can't find the words to let you know.
Wake up on the groove .... (Oh yeah we gonna make dance all night long. Time and singing make me moving. You gotta using sixteen just a grooving). When I wake up in the morning.
It ain't the way you cut up and carry on. The little things flip me to a tee. It aint the way you like to rock me al night long. Girl what really gets the best of me.
Today I drove through this ol' town. Took a real good look around. Saw a lot of things. That I'd never seen before. . An older couple holding hands. Young lovers picking out wedding bands.
Buddy, you and me go way back. Camp all June, all through high school and before that. So I don't mind tellin' you I'm scared to death. The doctor is goin' in on the 25th.
I never would have hitchhiked to Birmingham. If it hadn't been for love. I never would have caught the train to Louisiana. If it hadn't been for love.
If I could tell the truth, people just might see. Who I really am, not who I have to be. I get so damn tired of playing by the rules. Afraid of what I'd lose, if I could tell the truth.

I'd like to lay this old hammer down. And drive my pickup truck to town. Find a friend and just hang around. If I could just be me. . Grab a bobber and my old cane pole.
