I know she's a long way from an angel and a man's a fool to love her kind And I also know one of these days she'll go back to her cheatin' ways But my heart just won't listen to my mind
No my heart just won't listen if I woke up and found her missin' I guess I'd come very close to dyin' I know I'm making a bad mistake headin' straight for a big heartache But my heart just won't listen to my mind
She's trying God knows my baby's trying But she's getting more restless all the time So I'm gonna live from day to day let the chips fall where they may For my heart just won't listen to my mind
