She Went Outta Town Testo

You drove her to the airport, took her to the gate A strong willed woman with a tear in her eye but you couldn't wait Stopped at one of your old haunts With one of your old friends Thinkin' it was time to drown a hurt that never mends She went out of town, and you went on a tear Chasin' all the pretty women Makin' trouble everywhere Breakin' a string of promises And you were quite a sight But when the cat's away the mouse will play And it's a hinky tonk every night Drinkin', smokin', flirtin', sinnin' dancin' all night long Doin' things you never do when she's at home Called me up at 4 a.m. as they were closin' up the bar You said you're sorry, what a lousy liar you are Is this what happens to a good ol' boy When your woman goes far away You shoot your strength a fatal glass of beer and it's back to your old ways
