No Choice In The Matter
(专辑: Jason Isbell and The 400 Unit - 2009)
We'll say a
friend of mine, a
fella I
know real well, came to me on Friday and he had a
story to tell I've heard it a
thousand times, but this one hits close to home The
woman who left him I've taken for my own Love leaves you no choice in the
matter and there ain't a
damn thing sadder than a
man in the
throes of something real The
woman that lays down beside you, she can't help or hide you It don't matter how she wants to feel So I
bought him a
round or two and gave him a
talking to I
said, "Boy, you can't let yourself get so far" But you can't tell a
man a
thing when he's picking out diamond rings and you yourself don't know who you are Love leaves you no choice in the
matter and there ain't a
damn thing sadder than a
man in the
throes of something real The
woman that lays down beside you, she can't help or hide you It don't matter how she wants to feel My hands, they used to be a
young man's hands but I
worked 'em to the
bone When'd she even find the
time to get to know another man? "Leave me alone," he said, "leave me alone" Love leaves you no choice in the
matter and there ain't a
damn thing sadder than a
man in the
throes of something real The
woman that lays down beside you, she can't help or hide you It don't matter how she wants to feel
