Salt in my Tears Lyrics
I never did it, no, I won't admit it
Why should I lie for you anymore
You never loved me, you pushed and shoved me
I see the woman I never saw
I saw you laugh when the knife was twisted
It still hurts but the pain has shifted
I'm lookin' back at the time that drifted by
But I won't cry for the wasted years
'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears
Feeling neglected, used and rejected
You need a shoulder to lean upon
Baby you picked him, found your next victim
Don't worry someone will come along
I broke the spell that you kept me under
I had enough of the rain and thunder
I lost track of the time and I wonder why
But I won't cry for the wasted years
'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears
I'll sit around and drink a few more beers
Until the memory just disappears
'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears
I saw you laugh when the knife was twisted
It still hurts but the pain has shifted
I'm lookin' back at the time that drifted by
But I won't cry for the wasted years
'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears
'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears
'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears
Why should I lie for you anymore
You never loved me, you pushed and shoved me
I see the woman I never saw
It still hurts but the pain has shifted
I'm lookin' back at the time that drifted by
But I won't cry for the wasted years
'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears
You need a shoulder to lean upon
Baby you picked him, found your next victim
Don't worry someone will come along
I had enough of the rain and thunder
I lost track of the time and I wonder why
But I won't cry for the wasted years
'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears
Until the memory just disappears
'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears
It still hurts but the pain has shifted
I'm lookin' back at the time that drifted by
But I won't cry for the wasted years
'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears
'cause you ain't worth the salt in my tears

This tune's 'bout a fellow named Martin Who's just getting over a partin' And these lyrics he wrote are a harsh farewell note To the gal who has got him disheartened
Never heard this song, but the lyrics are unreal. Awesome!
This song came out around 1982 or 1983 when you were one. I don't know if it is still in print but it is a great song and if you can ever get a chance to listen to it, it would be worth your time.
I really should email this to my ex.
