Verse 1
Oh why the hell do i keep
Running on back to her
Left ma heart ripped to pieces
Right here on ma kitchen floor
She walked up on outta here
Slamming the door with her boots on the wood floor
Lord I can't take it no more
Chorus
Send me on my way
My way of doing things just ain't working
She never even drove back home, but I'm learning
It ain't take a microscope to spot the holes in this he heart of mine
So God take ma last dime
And Send me on my way
Verse 2
She never even dialed me up
Musta, just about had enough
Ma old country heart Keeps on beating
Even tho it ain't got no beats left in it
And she left the ring by the sink and it's hard to think
She ain't never walking back up ma porch, again
Send me on my way
My way of doing things just ain't working
She never even drove back home, but I'm learning
It ain't take a microscope to spot the holes in this he heart of mine
So God take ma last dime
And Send me on my way
Verse 3
Driving home to the farm I spot her
Flower dress standing on ma porch
I say, baby you ain't sposed to be here
She wraps me up in her arms, says, baby, I was so damn wrong
And now 30 long years later, we got a son, his name junior, imma teach him fishing, driving and how to play ball, just like mama would've loved
Send me on my way
My way of doing things just ain't working
She never even drove back home, but I'm learning
It ain't take a microscope to spot the holes in this he heart of mine
So God take ma last dime
And Send me on my way
Ohhhhh
Send me on my way
My way of doing things just ain't working
She never even drove back home, but I'm learning
It ain't take a microscope to spot the holes in this he heart of mine
So God take ma last dime
And Send me on my way
