Bill Anderson - One Mile Over Two Miles Back lyrics

rate me

One mile over and two miles back my heart's been crushed like a paper sack

She loves another it's a natural fact one mile over and two miles back

She called me up and told me she was lonely and she needed my company

But she lived pretty far and my brother had a car

And I had to walk all the way and I got to her house

I could see through the windows and I knew she hadn't played fair

For after we had talked and after I had walked someone was already there

And it was one mile over...

My heart fell into little bitty pieces and I picked 'em up off the groung

I put 'em in a sack and I threw it cross my back

And it must've weighed eight thousand pounds

Road back to my house was dark and lonely and I thought it was never gonna end

I called her name and I cried in vain and I counted every step I went

And it was one mile over...
