Twenty Days and Twenty Nights
I left my home up in the hill
Far behind me
I left my wife with unpaid bills
She can't find me
I'm trying out the world for size
Find that it's not paradise
It's lonely, oh
Now for twenty days and twenty nights
I've been alone and that ain't right
Without her
City ways are strange to me
I can't make it
For it's not like it ought to be
And I can't take it
Gotta face the truth one day
Man can't always run away from trouble, oh
Now for twenty days and twenty nights
I've been a fool and that ain't right
Without her
One day soon I'm going back
Where she still minds me
And then out of line and off the track
But that's behind me
I fooled around and did it well
But I just couldn't ring the bell
Without her, no
It's taken twenty days and twenty nights
To prove me wrong and make her right
Twenty days and twenty nights
I was wrong and she was right
All along
I miss her
Oh, how I miss her
Oh how I miss her
Oh how I miss her
Oh how I miss her, oh how
Oh how I miss her
Oh how I miss her
Far behind me
I left my wife with unpaid bills
She can't find me
I'm trying out the world for size
Find that it's not paradise
It's lonely, oh
Now for twenty days and twenty nights
I've been alone and that ain't right
Without her
City ways are strange to me
I can't make it
For it's not like it ought to be
And I can't take it
Gotta face the truth one day
Man can't always run away from trouble, oh
Now for twenty days and twenty nights
I've been a fool and that ain't right
Without her
One day soon I'm going back
Where she still minds me
And then out of line and off the track
But that's behind me
I fooled around and did it well
But I just couldn't ring the bell
Without her, no
It's taken twenty days and twenty nights
To prove me wrong and make her right
Twenty days and twenty nights
I was wrong and she was right
All along
I miss her
Oh, how I miss her
Oh how I miss her
Oh how I miss her
Oh how I miss her, oh how
Oh how I miss her
Oh how I miss her
