She Tried

Bubba Sparxxx

(Good Lord, May God have mercy on my soul)

I love her, but you never would know

That by the way I just let my girl go

With tears in her eyes from years of the lyin'

She backed on up and disappeared down the drive-

Way, hey, what can I say, all we have is nothing today

I did my thing, and she did hers,

But my crime's a wee bit worse

And now I'm sitting her all alone with my guilt

Just me and the dogs and home that we built

It was then it was hers, even though Bubba bought it

But Bubba wouldn't leave just like her mother called it

From the P, hold it to the blue flame

God, forgive me for causing you pain

All it was, ain't no more, cause my babys gone

And when it rains it pours.



[Chorus]

She tried to tell me I needed to be strong

I wasn't listening, and now my baby's gone



One for the pleasure, two for the sin

Three for the family we coulda been

Had I not been so concerned

With this life no spoken words

Couldn't begin to undue what's done

Deep within I know that you must run

Far away, from the thought of my smile

And the broken dream of us walking that isle

I first saw betty in ???

The breast where the best, and the fanny “my lord”

I fly country girl, just working them gifts

She's my queen, was a virgin I guess

But I ain't never ask, and ain't never tell

But Betty had the cash every time I went to jail

And how did I reward her loyalty

Let her walk in and see her cousin Joy on me



[Chorus]



It's been six months, and still no word

I try to carry on like it still don't hurt

Hoes come around, but I still wont' flirt

Drinking worse, and the pills don't work

Last I heard she was in Birmingham

Living with a good hard working man

And lookin' back on it, that's exactly what she wanted

Not a rebel with a passion for the moment

I live for the feeling, the kick in the snout

I take my love and I stick it in there

Moved a jimmy and made this song

All because my baby is gone
