Why’d you try and understand what’s goin’ on in my head
Told you you’d be better off lovin’ someone else instead
Why’d you try to do it were you afraid of bein’ alone
Well honey I realised that I’m better off on my own
Why’d you do what you do
Had me doin’ whatever you wanted me to
Left me like some kinda fool
Left me with them old cold bitch blues
You as good as told me that I couldn’t play the guitar
And that I waste my time wishin’ upon them stars
You don’t like my music or any of the clothes I wear
Why didn’t you tell me sooner that you just didn’t care
Why’d you do what you do
Had me doin’ whatever you wanted me to
Left me like some kinda fool
Left me with them old cold bitch blues
What will I be doin’ when you find another man
I’ll be sittin’ home alone cryin’ tryin’ to understand
Maybe I’ll just go back to my dirty old ways
No point livin’ clean now that you have gone away
Why’d you do what you do
Had me doin’ whatever you wanted me to
Left me like some kinda fool
Left me with them old cold bitch blues
