I Showed Her Songtext
von Alabama

She told me I shou′ straighten up my ways
Or she'd be walkin′ out

But I guess I was just too blind to see
Or maybe just too proud

So I never thought twice
When she loaded up her things and drove away
'Cause I knew she'd be back someday
I knew she′d be back

Took off my work clothes
And left them in right there on the floor

′Cause I knew she'd pick ′em up
When she got home like a hundred times before

And just to make it easier for her
I left the light on on the porch
'Cause I knew she′d be back someday
I knew she'd be back


I guess I showed her
How much she had to lose
Showed her who was really who
I know she′s hurtin' now
Looks like I showed her

Must have seen the movie of the month
A dozen times or more

I watched my favorite team play ball
But I never heard a score

'Cause the whole time I was listening
For the moment when she′d walk through the door
′Cause I knew she'd be back someday
I know she′ll be back

I guess I showed her
How much she had to lose
Showed her who was really who
I know she's hurtin′ now
Looks like I showed her

If I could I show her how much she had to lose
I'd show her I′ve been hurtin' too
If I could hold her now
I'd really show her
