You might wander far,
Be a big time Nashville star.
Still it never hurts,
Even when you do your worst.
Well, I'm a wheel
That's always turning, oh.
Oh, I always start out where I end.
And, me, I'm like a fire
That's always burning.
But, oh,
How time flies right by the wayside.
You might wander far,
Be a big time Nashville star.
Still it never hurts,
Even when you do your worst.
I never was one to beg or borrow.
Yeah, I'm just trying to get a rise.
And we would always trade
Our safe for sorrow.
Well, I guess we're just a sign
Of the times.
But, oh, how life goes
Right out the windows.
You might kiss me sweet
Or call my name out while you cheat.
Still it never hurts
Even when you do your worst.
Bow, boy, never kneel
Now, by the time that I can't steal
Still it never hurts
Even when you do
Even when you do
Oh, even when you do
Your worst.
You might wander far,
Be a big time Nashville star.
Still it never hurts,
Even when you do your worst.
