"Wool Over My Eyes" lyrics

I put my trust in a woman that ain't got no trust in me
'Cause I'm in love with her she's in lust with me
I can't go on without any control
She's got a grip on my love superhold
And mama told me there'd be days like this
She didn't tell me this woman would have my heart in her fist

She put the wool over my eyes
Get away, get away I tried and I tried
She put the wool over my eyes
No matter how I said goodbye

I know that I'm looking kinda like a fool
And I tried to get away
Tried to get away but no matter what I knew
Man she keeps on pulling me back to that hell she calls her home
The way she's treating me deceiving me I'd rather be alone

She put the wool over my eyes
Get away, get away I tried and I tried
She put the wool over my eyes
No matter how I said goodbye

If there's anything I've learned
It's probably nothing at all
And this woman will still be the death of me
She's got my heart, my mind, my body and soul and all
And I heard through the great lie
She's working on the rest of me, good God!

I tried and I tried
She put the wool over my eyes
No matter how I say goodbye

I know it's a man out there going through the same thing
Let me hear you say
I know it's a man out there going through the same thing
Let me hear you say
Wool over my eyes
