The Side of You (That Used to Be)
I saw her dancing in the cotton groves
In a worn-out town, no one knows
Where the waffle house lady
Always knows your name
And I've read your heart from start to finish
Bout the same damn time it took to do the dishes
That I ain't done yet
Since you left town
Well, I'm trying to be a better man
I got a bouquet of flowers In my right hand
But that ain't good enough for you
You want a pretty life, no dirt in sight
Can't settle down, when things get tied
But, I cry darlin' on my knees
What happened to the side of you, that used to be?
Come inside I can build a fire
We can cuddle in a blanket and get real high
On the love we share
And all that's in between
Or, we can go to town and get a drink
Where the wine and the whiskey taste so sweet
Like the honey that covers your lips
And covers me
Well, I'm trying to be a better man
I got a bouquet of flowers In my right hand
But that ain't good enough for you
You want a pretty life, no dirt in sight
Can't settle down, when things get tied
But, I cry darlin' on my knees
What happened to the side of you, that used to be?
Well, I'm trying to be a better man
I got a bouquet of flowers In my right hand
But that ain't good enough for you
You want a pretty life, no dirt in sight
Can't settle down, when things get tied
But, I cry darlin' on my knees
What happened to the side of you, that used to be?
What happened to the side of you
What happened to the side of you
What happened to the side of you, that used to be?
In a worn-out town, no one knows
Where the waffle house lady
Always knows your name
And I've read your heart from start to finish
Bout the same damn time it took to do the dishes
That I ain't done yet
Since you left town
Well, I'm trying to be a better man
I got a bouquet of flowers In my right hand
But that ain't good enough for you
You want a pretty life, no dirt in sight
Can't settle down, when things get tied
But, I cry darlin' on my knees
What happened to the side of you, that used to be?
Come inside I can build a fire
We can cuddle in a blanket and get real high
On the love we share
And all that's in between
Or, we can go to town and get a drink
Where the wine and the whiskey taste so sweet
Like the honey that covers your lips
And covers me
Well, I'm trying to be a better man
I got a bouquet of flowers In my right hand
But that ain't good enough for you
You want a pretty life, no dirt in sight
Can't settle down, when things get tied
But, I cry darlin' on my knees
What happened to the side of you, that used to be?
Well, I'm trying to be a better man
I got a bouquet of flowers In my right hand
But that ain't good enough for you
You want a pretty life, no dirt in sight
Can't settle down, when things get tied
But, I cry darlin' on my knees
What happened to the side of you, that used to be?
What happened to the side of you
What happened to the side of you
What happened to the side of you, that used to be?
