I said the night you left me
Nothin' worse could ever happen
But seeing you with someone else
Proved that I was wrong
And when your eyes met mine
I knew that you were gone forever
Along with all the reasons
I had for hanging on

I'd be better off in a pine box
On a slow train back to Georgia
Or in the grey walls of a prison
Doing time, I think I'd rather die
And go to hell and face the devil
Than to lie here with you and him
Together on my mind

I always thought that someday
We might get back together
I just thought you needed time
To spread your wings and fly
But when I saw the lovin' way
You held onto each other
It was all that I could do
Not to break right down and cry

I'd be better off in a pine box
On a slow train back to Georgia
Or in the grey walls of a prison
Doing time, I think I'd rather die
And go to hell and face the devil
Than to lie here with you and him
Together on my mind

I'd be better off in a pine box
On a slow train back to Georgia
Or in the grey walls of a prison
Doing time, I think I'd rather die
And go to hell and face the devil
Than to lie here with you and him
Together on my mind

I can't lie here with you and him
Together on my mind
