Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
You been out there layin' low In every dive from here to memphis Lookin' for something to fill the hole In your poor little heart And keep out the cold Why does love have to hurt so bad To drive a man downtown every night I tell ya something ain't right Something's real wrong In the morning when i wake up You'll still be gone [Chorus] Come on back to the one who really loves you Baby come on back to me Come on back to the one who really cares Baby come on back to me Out chasing shadows on the dark side of town You can't hold what you can't catch It's a bitter business this running around When the penny drops it's a lonely sound Women are fools when it comes to you They gotcha doin' things you can't undo Like a chain of heartaches around your neck Give 'em enough rope and they'll hang you yet [Chorus: x2] Why does love have to hurt so bad To drive a man downtown every night I tell ya something ain't right Something's real wrong In the morning when i wake up You'll still be gone [Chorus: x2]
