lirik lagu porter wagoner – cold hard facts of life (re-recorded)
(bill anderson)
i got back in town a day before i’d planned to
i smiled and said i’ll sure surprise my wife
i don’t think i’ll phone i’ll just head on home
for i didn’t know the cold hard facts of life.
i p-ssed a little winestore on the corner
i pictured pink champagne by candle light
i stopped the car right then got out and hurried in
my mind not on the cold hard facts of life.
a stranger stood there laughing by the counter
he said i’ll take two bottles of your best
her husband’s out of town and there’s a party
he winkled as if to say you know the rest.
i left the store two steps behind the stranger
from there to my house his car stayed in sight
but it wasn’t till he turned into my drive that i learned
i was witnessing the cold hard facts of life.
i drove around the block till i was dizzy
each time the noise came louder from within
and then i saw our bottle there beside me
and i drank a fifth of courage and walked in.
lord you should’ve seen their frantic faces
they screamed and cried please put away that knife
i guess i’ll go to h-ll or i’ll rot here in this cell
but who taught who the cold hard facts of life.
who taught who the cold hard facts of life…
