[Verse 1]
I was a fool to trust you
And a bigger fool to believe
That the very first time I would be the last
I was easy to deceive
[Pre-Chorus]
The temper flared and I've prouded up before
But this time I’ve said goodbye and nothing more
[Chorus]
And don’t slam the door when you get out of my life
I’ve been your fool and I’m glad I’m not your wife
You can save the tears ‘cause I know how fast they dry
And don't slam the door when you get out of my life
[Verse 2]
I sat at home just waiting
Staring at your empty chair
While you were out with what’s her name
Or getting drunk somewhere
[Pre-Chorus]
They say a cat has got nine lives my friend
But you’re really out of luck with number ten
[Chorus]
And don’t slam the door when you get out of my life
I’ve been your fool and I’m glad I’m not your wife
You can save the tears ‘cause I know how fast they dry
And don't slam the door when you get out of my life
[Pre-Chorus]
The temper flared and I've prouded up before
They say a cat has got nine lives my friend
[Chorus]
And don’t slam the door when you get out of my life
I’ve been your fool and I’m glad I’m not your wife
You can save the tears ‘cause I know how fast they dry
And don't slam the door when you get out of my life
