She Tried — текст песни (Bubba Sparxxx)

[Bubba Sparxxx - talking]
Uh huh, yeah
Good Lord
May God have mercy on my soul

[Verse 1 - Bubba Sparxxx]
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 lies
She backed on up and disappeared out the drive
Wait, hey, what can I say?
All we had means nothin today
I did my thing and she did hers
But my crimes are a wee bit worse
And now I`m sittin here all alone with my guilt
Just me and the dogs in the home that we built
It was Andy`s and hers, even though Bubba bought it
But Bubba wouldn`t leave just like her mother called it
from the pink, only to the blue blame
God forgive me for causin you pain
All it was, ain`t no more
Cause my baby`s 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

[Verse 2 - Bubba Sparxxx]
One for the pleasure, two for the sin
Three for the family we could a been
Had I not been so concerned
with this life, no spoken words
Could 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 walkin that aisle
I first saw +Betty+ in my Nanny White`s yard
The breast where the best, and the fanny my lord
A fly country girl, just workin them gifts
She`s my queen, was a virgin I guess
But I ain`t never ask and I 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]

I ..
Uh, uh, uh

[Verse 3 - Bubba Sparxxx]
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 won`t flirt
Drinking`s worse and the pills don`t work
Last I heard she was in Birmingham
Livin with a good hard workin 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 the kick in the snout
I take my love and I stick it in there
Moved a Jimmy and made this song
All because my baby`s gone

[Chorus]
