I Went Out Of My Way

(album: Porter Wagoner Country - 1971)

I went out of my way to make you happy
To love you when your other love went wrong
I went out of my way when you were lonely
Now I'm out of my mind since you've gone

I asked the fool on the stool next to me
What do you do with so much misery
Just one love in his eyes and I could see
He was out of his mind just like me

I went out of my way to be near you
But one too many nights we were alone
I went out of my way to try and please you
Now I'm out of my mind since you've gone

I asked the fool on the stool next to me
What do you do with so much misery
Just one love in his eyes and I could see
He was out of his mind just like me
