Hard Luck Story

Well, I was thinking that I shoulda,

But I didnt ever leave you,

But baby, Im leavin tonight

And theres a trucker drinking coffee in the station who can give me a ride.

Well, I was thinking about a heading to mobile, alabama

And that was just last saturday night.

I can leave you if I wanna, little baby and Im gonna tonight.

Cause I got a bucket full of tears and a hard luck story

Theres a bad moon rising behind

And I swore it to your daddy that I loved you, but I changed my mind.

Well, Im a fast talking, hell raising, son of a *****

And Im a sinner and I know how to fight

Well, I can leave you if I wanna, little baby and Im gonna tonight.

Cause I got a bucket full of tears and a hard luck story

Theres a bad moon rising behind

And I swore it to your daddy that I loved you, but I changed my mind.

Well, Im a fast talking, hell raising, son of a *****

And Im a sinner and I know how to fight

Cause I can leave you if I wanna, little baby and Im gonna tonight.

Well I was sitting, I was drinking on a barstool

Thinking how true love becomes a lie

And I never should have left you

But I had to, and I betcha theres a man there with you tonight.

And I swore it to your daddy that I missed you, but I didnt

If I came back it wouldnt be right.

Cause I can leave you if I wanna, little baby and Im gonna tonight.
