Four Years of Chances

Well I waited four long winters
Yes, I waited in the sun
I was cryin' all alone
While you were out havin' fun
I gave you four years of chances, but you threw 'em all away
I gave you one thousand, four-hundred sixty-one days
I gave you four years of chances
Kept tryin' to be your wife
I cleaned your shirts and cooked up your supper
But you stayed out late at night
I gave you four years of chances to try and build a happy home
But now one more may as well be a million and one
Now you lost me darlin'
And you can't get me back
Ain't that just like a man, things change so fast
Because you want what you can't have
So now I'm gonna say it slowly before I go away
You had one thousand, four-hundred sixty-one days
I gave you four years of chances
Kept tryin' to be your wife
I cleaned your shirts and cooked up your supper
But you never did treat me right
I gave you four years of chances to try and build a happy home
But now one more may as well be a million and one
Well I found a good man now
You know he treats me like he should
And we live in a shed by the railroad track
And he's out back choppin' wood
And though we don't have too much money
I'll tell you why that's okay
He loves me every moment of them three-hundred sixty-five days
I gave you four years of chances
Kept tryin' to be your wife
I cleaned your shirts and cooked up your supper
But you never did treat me right
I gave you four years of chances to try and build a happy home
But now one more may as well be a million and one
