Trout Fishing In America - I've Turned My Back lyrics

rate me

Was the morning after she left;

I was up all night drinking coffee and smoking cigarettes.

I don't care if she's gone again;

that's the last time I let her get to me this way

I just don't care.

And I know that I tried this time

Just the same as I tried before.

And I know she can't pull those strings any more.

She can't touch me

I've turned my back.

I got dressed, read the paper twice.

Found a story about a young boy whose mama died

Left him alone in it.

it's okay, I'm down to me again;

Just another workin' day out in front of me

So let's get on with it.

I got home kinda late tonight

And I halfway expected to see you again

You just weren't here.

And I cared and it cut me deep

For a moment I cried

Then I lay down and put me to sleep.
