Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When I was born, they should've warned me
And I woulda turned my ass around
Packed it up, and hit the country
Never even make a sound
[Verse 2]
Because time alone won't heal this hurtin'
There's little changes in between
And I'll be damned if I ain't workin'
They can't take that shit from me
[Verse 3]
Why does it hurt so bad?
I lost the best I never had
People say I should be glad
I lost the best I never had
[Verse 4]
And I don't need to feel a heartbeat
Got too much trouble on my hands
Them swingin' doors, they cut right through me
And I gave my money to the man
[Verse 5]
And I ain't tryna catch the fever
But I swear I stood on greener land
And that devil holds a diamond needle
This room is filling up with sand
[Verse 6]
Why does it hurt so bad?
I lost the best I never had
People say I should be glad
I lost the best I never had
But in these hard times, no one to hold me
'Cause you had to roll me, one more time
And in these low and lonesome valleys
Mountains surround me
Lord, it feels I might be dyin'
[Verse 7]
Why does it hurt so bad?
I lost the best I never had
People say I should be glad
But I lost the best I never had
Why does it hurt so bad?
My heart is broke, I don't stand a chance
People say I should be glad
Why does it hurt so bad?
