Well I've seen you hanging around for awhile,
And I wish that you'd just go away
Cause I've been stuck in this old town for awhile,
And this town has seen it's better days

And I'll be damned if I'll let you
Be a part of some new start
And make me lose my will to leave this place
And I'll be damned if I'll let you
Take my heart and tear it apart
And make me watch the tears fall from your face

You can find me here each night, and I'll be drinking
I'm trying to lose these blues and these woes
Then you'll find me in the morning, and I'll be thinking,
Where did all of my money go?

But I'll be damned if I'll let you
Pick me up and brush me off
And give myself a reason to live
And I'll be damned if I'll let you Take me in and be my friend
And give me something all my money can't give

Guess I finally got my wish
You've gone away
I guess I've proven that I am a man
But I know that I'll just go to shit in all my days
And to this town will be damned; I'll be damned

I'll be damned if I didn't let you
Be a part of some new start
And make me lose my will to leave this place
And I'll be damned if I didn't let you;
You took my heart and tore it apart
And made me watch the tears fall from your face
