To understand this song, you probably need to go back to the songs in the medley. The middle of the song is from his song down, down, down. The woman has done something a person she loves can't forgive. She goes to places he'll be hoping to see him, hoping she will be forgiven.
The writer sees her and he wants to be with her. The woman's love has evidently done the same thing she has done, but is lying about it.
The writer doesn't want to hurt her by telling her of the lies, and wonders WHEN she learns of all the lying, will she pursue the lover then.
As far as I know there is the component at the start of a song called Whiskey Boot Hill, and the end of the medley Country Girl. Still searching for the full song lyrics.
A guess, The first part is where she does something that can't be forgiven but he lover. The last part is the writer trying to tell her he had no one here or in the city. Forget the other guy, be my Country girl.
@haskmojo I felt like he did something perhaps wrong by her..and if he could stand to see her crying he'd just tell her..hey don't worry about that..it just don't matter that much, but he can't stand to see the way his actions cause her to cry...so he lied, and kinda hopes she won't learn that but if she does..will she still entwine her life with his.?.but she's his country girl who is so pretty in his eyes n heart n he's got to let her know that for real now..she's heading off to check out life in the city and...
