Woman Walk The Line

(emmylou harris/paul kennerley)



Don't bother sittin' at my table

Just because i'm on my own

Yes i'm a woman and i'm lonely

But that don't mean i can't be strong

Once again he's not beside me

And tonight he won't be coming home

So i just need a place to miss my baby

When he goes out to do me wrong



Tonight i want to do some drinkin'

I came to listen to the band

Yes i'm as good as what you're thinkin'

But i don't want to hold your hand

And i know i'm lookin' lonely

But there's nothing here i want to find

It's just the way of a woman

When she goes out to walk the line



Every night's a little longer

Than the one that came before

But when i hear them sing a sad song

I know just what i'm cryin' for

I don't want to stay home waitin'

Don't have to wonder where he's been

He'll be someone else's baby

Before he's in my arms again



Tonight i want to do some drinkin'

I came to listen to the band

Yes i'm as good as what you're thinkin'

But i don't want to hold your hand

And i know i'm lookin' lonely

But there's nothing here i want to find

It's just the way of a woman

When she goes out to walk the line



It's just the way of a woman

When she goes out to walk the line

Don't bother sittin' at my table
