Waiting

She said she was leavin', I didn't believe her

'Til I saw that big ol' dirty meat cleaver

Hurlin' at my head at quite a speed

And I ducked and hollered

Said honey you're sure bothered

By livin' for free at the mouth of a holler

She yelled back that wasn't fair and I had to agree

She said I ain't your honey and I don't think you're funny

I hate all your songs and I don't need your money

And I'm gettin' out of here to have me some fun

Said I'm tired of waitin' on someone who's never gonna change

I'm tired of runnin' around like a fool and a clown, playin' all of your games

I'm done with the lyin' and the cryin' and the barely gettin' by

And I may hurt right now but I sure won't care when I'm high!

Well, I said it's interestin' that you mention this guitar I pick and these songs I've been singin'

When you know full well all the sad ones I wrote are about you

In particular the ones that I wrote about cheatin'

And the wantin' a gal you got no business needin'

And especially the one about that girl who can't make up her mind

And I'm tired of waitin' on someone who's never gonna change

I'm tired of runnin' around like a fool and a clown, playin' all of her games

I'm done with the lyin' and the cryin' and the barely gettin' by

And I may hurt right now but I sure won't care when I'm high!
