Jean Shepard "Why Did You Wait" |
(Clyde Wilson - Bettie Westergard) Why did you wait to prove to be untrue Why did you change what's come over you What made you stop a caryin' for me Why did you wait till we had a family? Why did you wait till a baby was born Think of the shame look at the harm Think of what you've done to your baby and me Why did you wait till we had a family? --- Instrumental --- I'd rather be dead than to tell her the news Your daddy's traded us for bright lights and booze I can see her little face as she cries in misery Why don't my daddy stay with my mommy and me. Why did you wait till a baby was born Think of the shame look at the harm Think of what you've done to your baby and me Why did you wait till we had a family?... Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
