30-30

Dodd Deryl

Well, I can't forget the day we met how I could clearly see
With picture-perfect vision, she was the only one for me
My perception of a heavenly love was right there in my sight
I never saw the true writin' on the wall, 'cause she was standin' in my light

Bought her a diamond ring; nearly everything this workin' man could not afford
A Chevy, a house, and the credit cards to her favorite department stores
Loved her all I could; I can't believe she would run off with some ol' used to be
Guess ya never know what the future holds, 'cause for her it wasn't me

[Chorus]
And they say lookin' back is a lesson, and that's why I won't forget her
Through the smoke and haze of bein' burned, I can see things a whole lot better
Lord, I was blind, but now I find since she did me down and dirty
Hindsight's not twenty-twenty, it's more like a 30-30

Now I'm pickin' up the pieces of this shattered, broken heart of mine
Been searchin' for the lovin' parts, but the hurtin' ones are all I find
When she took her aim, she wasn't playin' no games
Lord, she dropped me right to my knees
She untied our knot with a perfect shot and put me into my misery

[Chorus]

Lord, hindsight's not twenty-twenty, it's more like a 30-30
