Breakfast In Birmingham (Album Version)

歌词

(david lee murphy/kim tribble)

She was still on my mind when i crossed the state line

Walked out a little too fast

I said some things that i didn't mean

And i should have taken 'em back

And i knew when i said 'em that voice in my head whispered

Man when are you gonna learn

You told her goodbye you left with your pride

But you're gonna eat those words

And now i'm havin' breakfast in birmingham

Tryin' to swallow my pride

I got a plate full of memories

And not much appetite

There ain't nothin' like a cold cup of coffee and a stale apology

I'm having breakfast in birmingham

She's in tennessee

It's a thunderin' sound silver droppin' down

In an ol' pay phone

When you're makin' that call to say you were wrong

And it's ringin' like nobody's home

She's not the kind who'll cry and remind me

That i left and broke her heart

I'm prayin' she answer 'cause i gotta tell her

This time i went too far
