lyrics

Since I met you baby
You've been trouble day and night
I gotta find a new lady
One who knows how to treat me right
I ain't about to be lonely
And you are'nt about to be kind
Thats why Im leaving this morning
Before the sun has a chance to shine
Soon I know youll be sorry
But that ain't enough to make me stay
You Know Them Blues will come calling
And you'll be crying in your hands someday

You know how long I've been waiting
So this should come as no surprise
That my last nerves will be grating
If you should try to bring the tears to your eyes
I ain't much for forgiveness
And I sure ain't about to forget how you
Smile when you say that you're sorry
As you light another cigarette
Soon I know you'll be angry
But that ain't enough to make me care
You know Them Blues will come knocking
And you'll be crying in your hands right there

Every time you go down to the market store
You'll hear the people start to say
Well that's the evil girl what drove that loving man away.
Every Sunday down inside the house of the Lord
You'll see the people start to stare
And you'll know down in your soul that when you die
You won't be going up there

Every time you try to go to sleep at night
You'll hear the thunder start to roll
And you'll know the sky is telling you to pray
For what you did to my soul
And every time you get down on your knees
To put your hands up to your face
When those prayers fill the room
You'll know they'll never be enough to erase
All the things that you said
While you lay in my bed
All the times that you told me
You wished I was dead
All the words that I bled
On the page that you read
When you knew you were holding
My heart by a thread
And that feeling of dread
That I keep in my head
