These Days

I went around to your house

Found you laid up in the bed

By early afternoon you were so sloppy drunk

You couldn't even raise up your head

So get on with your life baby

Please let me get on with mine

These days and your ways are so painful

You're just wasting all our precious time, ohhh

Since first I knew your name

I wasn't sure that you really cared

Spent most of your time with the other boys

And it's been all down hill from there

So get on with your life baby

Please let me get on with mine

Each day brings a new confusion

Another way to break this poor heart of mine

I can't begin to count the times that I've told ya

You better change all your wicked ways

But I'm real sure whatever the number

Ah it's the same as the times you laughed in my face

Won't somebody please wake me from this bad dream

I remember my grandmama told me

Things ain't always what they seem

So get on with your life baby

Please let me get on with mine

Cause each day brings another confusion

It's about to break this poor heart of mine

Ohhhha, gonna lose my only mind, oh baby

Don't you break this poor heart of mine
