Look What Ive Done

by Ashley Redden   Jul 9, 2005


She says shes gonna leave me
If I soon don't change
Darlin there ain't no changing me
You must be out of your mind
This stubborn ole country boy
That just don't give a damn no more
Our loves just way out of hands
And cant be controlled
But if you think you're gonna change me
You got another thing coming
I started spending my nights out on the town
Down at the local bars
Or partys out in the woods
Or just nights out with old friends
She just didn't like it
But there wasn't no settling down
In my mind
You'll always be there
You ain't gonna leave
At least thats what I think
But damned enough
I came home about 4 this morning
The locks had been changed
And my clothes and things
Was sitting on the porch
And a note on the screen door that read
"I told you if you didn't change
One of us was gonna be good and gone
So until you straiten up
And can be a man
To me and your little girl
You just might as well go
And have another night on town"
I was heart broken
And I knew it was my fault
That its gone the way it did
As I put my things in the truck
And drove out the drive
I knew there was one thing
I could count on
And that was my old buddy Jack
I started to drinking
Cause I knew Id never win er back
My life's went to hell the past month
I ain't got a woman to go home to no more
And I ain't seen my baby girl in days
Look what Ive done
Ive let em both down
And I keep running from it all
