George Strait
Why Can’t I Leave Her Alone
[Verse 1]
I know I don't want her
I swear that's a fact
But the thought of somebody else
Rubbing her back just kills me
Oh, it kills me
[Verse 2]
I know she don't love me
I know she ain't home
So why in the hell do I
Pick up this phone and call her
Why do I call her?
[Chorus]
I've dropped by her mama's
Stoned out of my mind
Just to hear that it's over
From her one more time
As if I didn't see that red Chevy
Not slowing down, loaded down
And rolling down our road
Yeah, she's already left
So why can't I leave her alone?
[Verse 3]
I've wrote her letters
Signed I was a fool
She wrote me back saying
Go find a stool and drink one
Like you've always done
[Verse 4]
So that's what I did
'Cause that's what I do
Backsliding, hiding away
From the truth until the tears run
Oh, here comes one
[Chorus]
I've dropped by her mama's
Stoned out of my mind
Just to hear that it's over
From her one more time
As if I didn't see that red Chevy
Not slowing down, loaded down
And rolling down our road
Yeah, she's already left
So why can't I leave her alone?
[Chorus]
I've dropped by her mama's
Stoned out of my mind
Just to hear that it's over
From her one more time
As if I didn't see that red Chevy
Not slowing down or turnin' 'round
Or loaded down headin' out of town
And rolling down our road
She's already left
So why can't I leave her alone?
[Outro]
I know I don't want her
I swear that's a fact
But the thought of somebody else
Rubbin' her back just kills me
