Whiskey still on my breath,
I left without a trace.
I told you I was leaving here,
Told you I hated this damn place.
You have questions,
Oh, I know you had a few.
But you didn't say a word,
just watched me leave out in the noon.
It gets dark here early,
living on the road,
with a back-alley suitcase
and a pocket full of green gold.
I figured I'd settle here,
just for tonight.
Maybe I'd sell me some
to make it through the night.
And it's hard to see,
it's hard to see
what you've been doing to me.
Yeah, and nobody knows that it's true.
They blame me, you know
They blame me
For all of those little things they see.
And God, I know that it ain't true
So why do I do?
How am I gonna tell them,
How am I gonna tell them the truth?
I turned out to be the man that nobody ever knew.
She told me when I left there,
"Don't come back 'round here no more"
She made it clear that
She don't love me anymore.
And it's hard to see,
it's hard to see
what you've been doing to me.
Yeah, and nobody knows that it's true.
They blame me, you know
They blame me
For all of those little things they see.
And God, I know that it ain't true,
So why do I do?
