[Verse 1]
I got the papers back in June
She got a name on the marquee
I got a couch, a truck, and a dog
She got a room full of VIP
I said, "Mama, this is hard"
She said, "Honey, so is rent"
Now every neighbor in the county
Says they know where my paycheck went
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, I tried to keep it cool
Tried to act like I was fine
Then I saw her on the big screen
And nearly dropped my Shiner lime
[Chorus]
My ex-wife is a pornstar
Lord, she really made a mark
My ex-wife is a pornstar
And I still can’t find my car (my car)
Everybody in the county
Keeps on asking if I care
I just smile and tip my hat
And say, "Well, at least she’s out there"
[Verse 2]
Now I get free drinks on Fridays
From a fella with a grin
Says, "I knew you back when she was yours"
Then he orders me again
Mama says, "Boy, don’t fret none"
Daddy says, "That’s showbiz, son"
Me, I just fix fence in silence
Till the gossip and the daylight run
[Pre-Chorus]
She left me with a toaster
And a story I can’t hide
Now the preacher won’t make eye contact
When I roll through on a Sunday ride
[Chorus]
My ex-wife is a pornstar
Lord, she really made a mark
My ex-wife is a pornstar
And I still can’t find my car (my car)
Everybody in the county
Keeps on asking if I care
I just smile and tip my hat
And say, "Well, at least she’s out there"
[Bridge]
I ain’t bitter, I’m just tired
Of the whisper and the stare
If life’s a little bit ridiculous
Then I guess I’m living there
I’ll keep my boots by the door
Keep my chin up, play it smart
’Cause some men lose a wife and a house
I lost both and got a chart
[Chorus]
My ex-wife is a pornstar
Lord, she really made a mark
My ex-wife is a pornstar
And I still can’t find my car (my car)
Everybody in the county
Keeps on asking if I care
I just smile and tip my hat
And say, "Well, at least she’s out there"
