i said the night you left me
nothin' worse could ever happen
but seeing you with someone else proved that i was wrong
and when your eyes met mine
i knew that you were gone forever
along with all the reasons
i had for hanging on
i'd be better off in a pine box
on a slow train back to georgia
or in the grey walls of a prison doing time
i think i'd rather die
and go to hell and face the devil
than to lie here with you and him together on my mind
i always thought that someday
we might get back together
i just thought you needed time to spread your wings and fly
but when i saw the lovin' way
you held onto each other
it was all that i could do
not to break right down and cry
i'd be better off in a pine box
on a slow train back to georgia
or in the grey walls of a prison doing time
i think i'd rather die
and go to hell and face the devil
than to lie here with you and him together on my mind
girl i'd be better off in a pine box
on a slow train back from georgia
or in the grey walls of a prison doing time
i think i'd rather die
and go to hell and face the devil
than to lie here with you and him together on my mind
i can't lie here with you and him together on my mind
