everything thing we had
the good times and the bad
I told myself I gave it all my best
but I just couldn't see
most of the bad was me
and now I have to get this off my chest

everything I thought I knew
about you
was wrong
I was so damn wrong
guess I never knew
Baby
you were hurting too
Baby
now I'm beggin' you
Baby please don't go

I wanna make things right
and hold you through the night
I tell myself we can make it work this time
but you just can't believe
that good can come from me
if I just keep asking I hope you'll change your mind

everything I thought I knew
about you
was wrong
I was so damn wrong
guess I never knew
Baby
you were hurting too
Baby
now I'm beggin' you
Baby please don't go

I really don't know
what I'll do
if I have to live a lonely life
without you
please don't keep on saying
that we're through
give us one more chance
for something new

everything I thought I knew
about you
was wrong
I was so damn wrong
guess I never knew
Baby
you were hurting too
Baby
now I'm beggin' you
Baby please don't go
now I'm beggin' you
Baby please don't go
now I'm beggin' you
Baby please come home

I Should Have Known
July 26, 2015

when I met you in the valley
and the ice all slipped away
your bright eyes made me so happy
and I cherished every day

but I took our love for granted
and I did things I regret
I kept thinking things would work out
at least that's what I said

I should have known
that you were hurting
should have listened to my heart
I should have known
our love was turning
from the beauty to the dark

and when our sun went down forever
and our world had turned to gray
I realized my lack of courage
had condemned our love this day

I should have known
that you were hurting
should have listened to my heart
I should have known
our love was turning
from the beauty to the dark

now I stand here on the wasteland
of the life that we once shared
and it seems the path I travel
doesn't matter anymore

I should have known
that you were hurting
should have listened to my heart
I should have known
our love was turning
from the beauty to the dark
I....should....have....known

gather round my good buddies
and I'll tell you my tale of woe
it happened down in lousiana
with a girl I used to know

she was something kinda special
with her dark brown eyes
the way she moved her body
kept me mesmerized
and I still can't believe I ever let her go

she was a Little Queen
lean and mean
she used to drive all the old men crazy down in New Orlean
Little Queen
she made me scream
I tried to give her what she wanted and deliver her every dream

when I first laid eyes upon her
she was spinning on a fireman's pole
so I gave her all my dollars
and I stayed for the rest of the show

when the party was over
and the crowd filed out
I turned to do the same
but then I heard her shout
Hey Baby, I think you outta take me home

Little Queen
lean and mean
she used to drive all the old men crazy down in New Orlean
Little Queen
she made me scream
I tried to give her what she wanted and deliver her every dream

well I stayed the whole summer
and I guess I fell in love with that girl
pretty sure that we would marry
and we'd travel all around the world

but when I popped the big question
in the pale moonlight
she shook her little head
and with a sideways smile
said Baby, I think you better move along

Little Queen
don't be mean
I know you love to drive the old men crazy down in New Orlean
Little Queen
why won't you come with me?
you know that leaving here tonight without you makes me wanna scream

she was a Little Queen
lean and mean
she used to drive all the old men crazy down in New Orlean
Little Queen
she made me scream
I tried to give her what she wanted and deliver her every dream
