Yes he wore a cowboy hat
Each bone broken in his back
All the money and all the gold
Couldn t buy my love at 8 years old
Now I m in love with a girl thats wrong for me
Ask her, she will disagree
Her father was a small time man
With small time dreams and small time hands
But
But I was there when there was nobody home
Please believe me when i say i dunno
Gone for good in fact but what does it mean
Within a year they always sold and bought
Easy enough to just look at her
Whole world on a silver platter
Was that that bad for me
If I was there the scotch is free
Won round one but its not over
He don t care cause he don t know her
True love is not the same
If I could lend a hand in shame
But I was there when there was nobody home
Please believe me when i say i dunno
Gone for good infact but what does it mean
Within a year they always sold and bought
If I was big
So much easier to see
Don t hide from me
That which I ve already seen
You lie to me
More than occasionally
Don t lie to me
You lied to me
I m as high as I ll ever be
I don t mind, Stay and see
They ve all gone, Why don t we
Holding hands, you and me
But I m as high as i ll ever be
But later on, lies to see
My past is gone, only from me
I m alive
But I was there when there was nobody home
Please belirve me when I say I dunno
Gone for good infact but what does it mean
Within a year they always sold and bought
Remember when it was me
Driving come down just for me
And then we ll try as we ve been
