Look at what you’ve done,
I feel just like your whipping boy.
Hard times are coming my way,
And baby I just know I can’t stay.
I have to go right now, down south I’ll run.

You could have had it all,
No longer will I be enthralled.
My life is a sandpaper hourglass,
Rough times all for you my lass.

Whenever I hear your name,
My heart tears itself in two.
Because I just don’t know,
Oh, what I must do.
And to you it’s just a game.

Yes Lord, I got to leave,
You’ve never loved me true.
People see you with another man,
Making me a bar room fool.
Oh God, I didn’t see the clues.

You could have had it all,
No longer will I be enthralled.
My life is a sandpaper hourglass,
Rough times all for you my lass.

Yes baby, we’re through,
And that will never ever change.
You broke my heart at the motel,
All I can say now is farewell.
A higher power I will pursue

Now I’m going for it all,
No more will I crawl.
True, blue love will I find,
But for now I’ll just unwind.
