| Designer names and diamond rings
|
| Are just some of the finer things
|
| I thought it took to keep her satisfied
|
| But a bank account and credit cards
|
| A circle drive through an acre yard
|
| Couldn’t fill that lonesome feeling
|
| That she had inside
|
| I bought her fancy clothes for all occasions
|
| And that new car so she could go
|
| Just any old where she pleased
|
| I bought that golden band she wore
|
| On the hand that closed the door
|
| And I bought the shoes that just walked out on me
|
| Leaving early and staying out late
|
| I thought for sure her love would wait
|
| Until the day that I could find the time
|
| But all the that she expected
|
| Were all the things that I neglected
|
| For what she wanted most from me
|
| Would not have cost a dime
|
| I bought the golden band she wore
|
| On the hand that closed the door
|
| And I bought the shoes that just walked out on me
|
| Yes, I bought the shoes that just walked out on me |
