(Jack Rhodes)

You ask me how long I've been drinkin'
And livin' this honky tonk life
Well, listen girls I'll tell you my story
I'm a mother that was once a happy wife.

I'm a girl just like so many others
Neither good nor bad, maybe a girl like you
And just think what for the grace of God in heaven
It could have in your heart stop of broke in two.

I'm a girl that's left without a future
And the baby boy that has his daddy's name
And the baby look up like his daddy
But another woman wears my wedding ring.
