Honey

My baby don't care about nothin When she gets the blues When she's down she takes off run'n There's nothin I can do She never stayed long in her home town Her momma wasn't livin and her daddy was gone They passed her around from kin to kin It'd last a few months and they'd pass her again She didn't wanna leave, she wanted to stay But they said "Honey, it's your way" Things never went her way She never had her day Never had money to buy'er own things But she found a guitar and she learned to sing Hung around pool halls and old saloons Sing'n Loretta, Kitty and Patsy tunes She dropped outta school and ran away You could hear'er sing'n "It's my way" She'll do things her way Maybe she'll have her day Moved in here with a bag of clothes That old guitar and a book of notes It wasn't too long till I found She didn't plan on stick'n around I begged and I pleaded for her to stay But she said "Honey, it's my way" She does things her way She's gonna have her day Comes and goes from time to time She don't like it when I call her mine I like it real good when she's around Till she get's blue and she hops town I beg and plead for her to stay But she says "Honey it's my way" Things never went her way She's never had her day My baby don't care about nothin, when she gets the blues When she's down she takes off run'n, there's nothin I can do
