lyrics
I tell you she told me
Set me down
Gave me back my key
She’s sick of this house
She’s sick of me
I tell you she told me
If I’d known how she’d be
I’d a let her go
I’d a set her free
A long time ago
‘Sted of fallin’ so deep
I tell you she told me
She spoke real sweet and tenderly
But the words she said
Ain’t what they use to be
I tell you how it felt to me
It hit me hard
Knocked the wind outa’ me
Now I’m blowin’ away
Like a tumble weed
I tell you she told me
I tell you she told me goodbye I’m sorry
