I'd Be Better Off In A Pine Box

I said the night you left me

Nothin' worse could ever happen

But seein' you with someone else

Proved that I was wrong

And when your eyes met mine

I knew you were gone forever

Along with all the reasons

I had for hangin' on

Well, I'd be better off in a pine box

On a slow train back to Georgia

Or in the gray walls of a prison

Doin' time

And I think I'd rather die

And go to hell and face the devil

Than to lie here with you and him

Together on my mind

Well, I always thought that someday

We might get back together

I just thought you needed time

To spread your wings and fly

But when I saw the lovin' way

You held onto each other

It was all that I could do

Not to break right down and cry

Well, I'd be better off in a pine box

On a slow train back to Georgia

Or in the gray walls of a prison

Doin' time

And I think I'd rather die

And go to hell and face the devil

Than to lie here with you and him

Together on my mind

Well, girl, I'd be better off in a pine box

On a slow train back to Georgia

Or in the gray walls of a prison

Doin' time

I think I'd rather die

And go to hell and face the devil

Than to lie here with you and him

Together on my mind

I can't lie here with you and him

Together on my mind
