Lyrics
This old world, well, don't it make you wanna think, "Damn?"
This cold girl, well, don't she make you wanna scream, "Damn?"
What's the matter, girl? Well, don't you think I'm good enough?
This old heart had a whole lot of breakin' down
She's got all these reasons in her head
But all that time, she knew if I lied
You can bet she will
She's taking her time till I thought I would die
And I can't sit still
Things got turned 'round, don't know where I started from, damn
I can't eat, can't sleep, coulda been a bigger man, damn
Oh, what's the matter, girl? Well, don't you think I'm bright enough?
This old man had a hard time getting here
You can leave your number at the door
But all that time, she knew if I lied
You can bet she will
She's taking her time till I thought I would die
And I can't sit still
Oh, there's nothing at all
Yeah, there's nothing at all
Well, there's nothing at all
To make her change her mind
Oh, make her change her mind
To make her change her
This old house been quiet since you went away, damn
Mixed up, fixed out, don't forget who got you here, damn
Oh, what's the matter world? Well, don't you see I opened up?
And this whole part's been played by another man
I pulled out the reason card instead
But all that time, yeah, she knew if I lied
You can bet she will
She's taking her time till I thought I would die
And I can't sit still
She says she can find the things that make up a life
Well, I can bet she will, oh
She says, "Stay behind," I could stay here all night
I could stay here until
Until there's nothing at all
Yeah, there's nothing at all
Well, there's nothing at all
She gone, damn
To make her change her mind
She gone, damn
Oh, make her change her mind
She gone, damn
To make her change her mind, damn
