Lyrics"Forever In Shame"
Music & Lyrics by Scott Cooley.
When your man caught you cheatin', he didn't say a word He packed some things in a case and flew off like a bird He left you his fortune, and he left you his name Now you're left with your conscience, to live forever in shame You married for money, and then you got bored You started messin' around, always lookin' for more Your ego took over, you never thought you'd get caught Never careful what you wished for, and what you wanted you got Woman, old woman, I feel sorry for you When you wake in the morning, you've got nothin' to do You've got money to burn, but you never learned to be true You've got a beautiful home, but no one to share it with you Now when a man comes a knockin', it's at your front door And the whole world can see that when it rains it poors They all want your money, they don't ever want you You've got nowhere to hide, and no one to run to Your friends have deserted you, they've all seen what you've done And your family's disowned you, now you’re left with no one You're nervous and worried, you’re lonesome and blue He won't ever return, and it’s too late to start new Woman, old woman, I feel sorry for you When you wake in the morning, you've got nothin' to do You've got money to burn, but you never learned to be true You've got a beautiful home, but no one to share it with you You'll never be forgiven, you know better than to ask You with no morals, and even less class You had a good thing goin', a chance at true happiness But you threw it all away, and now you're stuck in this mess When your man caught you cheatin', he didn't say a word He packed some things in a case and flew off like a bird He left you his fortune, and he left you his name Now you're left with your conscience, to live forever in shame Woman, old woman, I feel sorry for you When you wake in the morning, you've got nothin' to do You've got money to burn, but you never learned to be true You've got a beautiful home, but no one to share it with you You’ve caused so much pain, more than you’ll ever know You’ve made your own bed, you lie in judgment alone Copyright © ℗ 2012 by Scott Cooley.
