First To Hit The Road
Why you actin' so surprised I'm leavin'?
We ain't been happy for some time
And don't pretend you don't know the reasons
I never made you read my mind
So go on, blame me, honey
Turn this whole town on me
Act like you were last to know
And lie 'til you believe it
Say, "I'm all good," 'fore I was leavin'
Just 'cause I'm first to hit the road
But, babe, you left me
Yeah, you left me
A long time ago
All I wanted was for you to listen
To hold me when I was scared
And I tried but couldn't close the distance
Even when you were out there
Only time you ever paid attention
Was when tears rolled down my face
Packin' up my suitcase so
Yeah, go on, blame me, honey
And turn this whole town on me
Act like you were last to know
And lie 'til you believe it
Say, "I'm all good," 'fore I was leavin'
Just 'cause I'm first to hit the road
But, babe, you left me
Yeah, you left me
A long time ago, hmm
Just rolled in to Texarkana
I'll be in Dallas by tonight
Just called to say goodbye
Go on, blame me, honey
Turn this whole town on me
Act like you were last to know, hmm
And lie 'til you believe it
Say, "I'm all good," 'fore I was leavin'
Just 'cause I'm first to hit the road
But, babe, you left me
Yeah, you left me
A long time ago
We ain't been happy for some time
And don't pretend you don't know the reasons
I never made you read my mind
So go on, blame me, honey
Turn this whole town on me
Act like you were last to know
And lie 'til you believe it
Say, "I'm all good," 'fore I was leavin'
Just 'cause I'm first to hit the road
But, babe, you left me
Yeah, you left me
A long time ago
All I wanted was for you to listen
To hold me when I was scared
And I tried but couldn't close the distance
Even when you were out there
Only time you ever paid attention
Was when tears rolled down my face
Packin' up my suitcase so
Yeah, go on, blame me, honey
And turn this whole town on me
Act like you were last to know
And lie 'til you believe it
Say, "I'm all good," 'fore I was leavin'
Just 'cause I'm first to hit the road
But, babe, you left me
Yeah, you left me
A long time ago, hmm
Just rolled in to Texarkana
I'll be in Dallas by tonight
Just called to say goodbye
Go on, blame me, honey
Turn this whole town on me
Act like you were last to know, hmm
And lie 'til you believe it
Say, "I'm all good," 'fore I was leavin'
Just 'cause I'm first to hit the road
But, babe, you left me
Yeah, you left me
A long time ago
