Nobody Cared |
It all started out in Illinois with a woman that I thought was just my own |
She saw a new tie and a new shirt kicked her heels and flipped her skirt |
Slammed that door and left me standing all alone |
They had a love nest in his new club there went my wife all over town |
As I watched it I got green and with my drinking I got mean |
Stuck a match and burned that club right to the ground |
And I spent nine months in the hole lying there in solitaire |
And nobody cared nobody cared nobody cared |
There was a screw out in the hall that had me backed up to the wall |
Escorting me with a water pistol in that 36 degrees |
With me shivering to my knees I am not going to forget about that water pistol |
If I’ve been bad you think that’ll make me better |
If I’ve been a sinner you think that’ll make me a saint no it isn’t |
Freedom come and I found him made him take off |
All his clothes and socks and shoes |
Had him scrambling on the floor trying to make it to the door |
Crying crawling screaming bloody murder too |
Well I didn’t really kill him though over his whole world there hung a paw |
I made him bend over on his knees and to his screams of Owen please |
Took my turpentine water pistol and I let him have it all |
Because I spent nine months |
And nobody cared nobody cared nobody cared |
