Lyrics
Divorce Blues
You took all my money
The house and car too
I just don't understand
What it was I saw in you
We both raised up our children
Now you say that we're through
I know I can't do this no more
'Cause I got too much to lose
To care too much for you
Divorce blues
I used to have
A lot of sunshine in my life
I thought I'd make you happy
By making you my wife
But we both lost ourselves
A long, long time ago
Now I know I can't do thin no more
'Cause I got too much to lose
To care too much for you
Divorce blues
On the day we said "I do"
I felt like a millionaire
I had everything my heart could ever desire
But on the day we said "we're done"
I went from two to none
And all my hopes and dreams were set on fire
Solo
We both lost ourselves
A long, long time ago
Now I know I can't do thin no more
'Cause I got too much to lose
'Cause I got too much to lose to care
'Cause I got too much to lose
To care too much for you
Divorce blues
