Lyrics Elvis Presley

Elvis Presley

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

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, I can't take it

Gotta face the truth one day, man can't always run away from trouble

No, 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

Oh, I miss her

Oh, how I miss her, oh how I miss her, oh how I miss her
