The Letter lyrics

by Shooter Jennings





I found a letter just yesterday
And what it say I can’t disclose
I read that letter and every word that it say
And my heart it just froze

Chorus:
Ain’t it a shame, ain’t it a shame
Ain’t it a shame, such a sad, sad shame
My baby’s been runnin’ around, all around this town
With another man

I packed her stuff up, put it out on the front porch
When she gets home she’ll surely see
You know it was so hard goin’ through our life together
Figurin’ out what belongs to you and what belongs to me

Repeat Chorus

So many times I’ve forgiven her
So much time I can never get back
I don’t wanna know how long it’s been goin’ on
I just wanna leave this town and never look back

Repeat Chorus

Ain’t it a shame
