Lyrics I Don't Deserve You - Jason Boland & The Stragglers, Sunny Sweeney

I Don't Deserve You

Now and then you catch a beating when it was someone else’s turn
Take the rap and watch the package burn
A sunny day at the cafe waitin' on your wings to dry
The come a-fallin' from the sky
Trials I’ve tried to fumble through
I take 'em in stride because of you
What I had comin' Lord only knows
I don’t deserve you darlin'
Don’t know what I did so right
I don’t deserve you by my side
All those times when the work’s put in somethin' 'bout an honest day
Some poacher says they think you oughta stay
So if I curse the universe or use the word «unfair»
Just remind me that you’re always standin' there
The evil eyes that look right through
The pain that paid the devil’s due
They don’t mean nothin' because I’ve learned, I’ve learned
I don’t deserve you darlin'
Don’t know what I did so right
I don’t deserve you by my side
All the trials I’ve tried to fumble through
I take 'em in stride because of you
What I had comin' Lord only knows, I know
I don’t deserve you darlin'
Don’t know what I did so right
I don’t deserve you by my side
Yeah I don’t deserve you darlin'
Don’t know what I did so right
I don’t deserve you by my side
