(Harlan Howard). . That's the very same door that I carried her through. On the night we were married last June. And right overthere is the very same chair.
(Harlan Howard - Richard Johnson). . I don't mind, I don't mind. I did for a time but I don't mind.. . It used to break my heart each time you cheated.
There's a house just down the street. A welcome mat outside the door. But it's for him and not for me. I never pass there anymore. . Within this house there is a girl.
It seems like years and a million tears since you've left the old hometown. Now you've chained they say and the great white way is your new stomping ground.
I've got my pride I've got my pride. When the nights're cold and there's no one to hold I've got my pride. . I should have said forgive me dear but I've got my pride.
You forgot to call me up you left me sittin' there. You forgot quite a lot and I forgot to care ah ah ah oh yeah. You forgot to fill me in on your new love affair.
The nights were dark and long, I spent a million all alone. But I never once stopped loving you. My world was cold and still, my dreams lay unfulfilled.
If I could be with you forever my restless heart would never want to roam. I've never been loved the way you loved me I wish I felt this way at home. But I don't and I won't I gave all that I could.
