I'd Be Better Off In A Pine Box (1990)
I said the night you left me nothing worse could ever happen
But seeing you with someone else only 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 gray 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'd get back together
I only thought you needed time to spread your wings and fly
But when I saw the loving way you held on to 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 gray 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.
Girl, I'd be better off in a pine box on a slow train back to Georgia
Or in the gray 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.
