Hey little darlin'
I've been callin' but you
Don't seem to hear
I've been waitin' and I've been
Hesitatin'
But I have waited
My share
I've been hot and I've been cold
Been carrying a heavy load
Trying to lift myself above
This old life
If I'm here or if I'm there
I can tell that you don't care
'Cause you've got a heart
Like a bucket full of ice
Hey little darlin'
I've been callin' but you
Don't seem to hear
I've been waitin' and I've been
Hesitatin'
But I have waited
My share

Well the old folks back home
They wonder why I roam
And chase the crooked
And cold hearted men like you
They tried to teach me well
But you have cast some kind of spell
And I am bound to fall
Until my days are through
And I tell myself no
But you know in the end
I'll always go back down
To the bar to look for you
Then I'm right back where I started
All alone and broken hearted
Hey, what's a girl like me
Supposed to do

Then you ask me
How I've been
I said I came out on top
But you could hardly call it winnin'
With that hard look in
Your eyes well I know now
It ain't no disguise
Well ain't no disguise
Ain't no disguise

Hey little darlin'
I've been callin' but you
Don't seem to hear
I've been waitin' and
I've been hesitatin'
But I have waited
My share
But I have waited
My share
