They tried to tell me I wouldn't listen Found my way to the bottom, of the pile I been walking down the side of this highway Just had to do it my way Held on to grudges Carried that load around for a million miles Tired of being alone and angry Looks like the sky is about to cryyyy Oh my goodness gracious sakes alive When am I gonna change my ways Oh my goodness gracious sakes alive Lookin for a place to lay my head no shelter from the rain They tried to tell me But I was stubborn Ain't no woman gonna cramp my style I been walkin down the side of this highway Don't care what they may say I've lied to judges Hard to do when their lookin dead at your file Tired of being alone and angry Looks like the sky is about to cryyyy Oh my goodness gracious sakes alive When am I gonna change my ways Oh my goodness gracious sakes alive Lookin for a place to lay my head no shelter from the rain Blank stare on my face I could sleep for days They all may be crazy Can't stop my hands from shaking They feel on my skin Dark clouds rollin in The rain can't wash away where I've been The rain can't wash away where I've been Oh my goodness gracious sakes alive When am I gonna change my ways Oh my goodness gracious sakes alive Lookin for a place to lay my head no shelter from the rain Oh my goodness gracious sakes alive When am I gonna change my ways Oh my goodness gracious sakes alive Lookin for a place to lay my head no shelter from the rain
