George Jones - Everything Ain't Right lyrics

rate me

Written by George Jones and Darrell Edwards

I'm gonna build a private graveyard

On the outskirts of town

And if my baby don't get home tonight

I'm a-gonna lower her down

'Cause it ain't right

Lord, no, ev'rything ain't right

I saw her out just the other night

She was really on a spree

She was makin' love to some other guy

Right there in front of me

That ain't right

Uh-huh, no, ev'rything ain't right

But I'm a-gonna buy her pretty things

And try to change her mind

'Cause I gotta have her with me tonight

I need her lovin' all of the time

My heart ain't right

Lord, no, ev'rything ain't right

I could build the highest bridges

Over waters deep and wide

To have her love back with me again

It would ease this pain inside

The world ain't right

Uh-huh, no, ev'rything ain't right

And I find myself in darkness

You took away the light

And I know there's never been a fool

Like me, before tonight

That ain't right

Lord, no, ev'rything ain't right

But I think I'll write my will out

And sign it before too long

You ain't a-gonna spend my money, uh-huh

Not after this poor boy's gone

That wouldn't be right

Lord, no, ev'rything ain't right
