"10,000 Acres" lyrics

"10,000 Acres"

Ten thousand acres of lonesome
Five hundred miles all filled up with pain
Can you see the black birds they've been flyin'?
Look at me, I'ma cryin' again

Look at me, I'm hurtin'
While time just workin', it's game on me
You know some folks they just can't win for tryin'
Look at me, I'ma cryin' again

I've got a dollar in my pocket
It won't help me much
In bringin' back your love
But if you sellin' heartache then I'm buying?
Look at me, I'ma cryin' again

Ten thousand acres of worry
I've had my sins one dozen at a time
I hurt so bad that you would think I'm dyin'
Look at me, I'ma cryin' again

Look at me, I'm losin'
While she's just a doin' anything she please
Don't you know that it's my knot you're tyin'
Look at me, I'ma cryin' again
Would you look at me, I'm cryin' again
