Can't Blame You

Can't blame you when you're going

This is something you've got to do

You've got to go, whoa, whoa

You've got to go, whoa, whoa

Tryin' so hard not to cry

Since they say man ain't supposed to cry

But these tears keep runnin' from my eyes

I remember the day I came to the city

My children were crying

My wife was scared she's gonna lose me

To the girls in the city

To make her feel alright I said it's impossible

To make her feel alright I said it's impossible

But I was wrong

Can't blame you when you're going

This is something you've got to do

You've got to go, whoa, whoa

Can't blame you when you're going

This is something you've got to do

You've got to go, whoa, whoa

You've got to go, whoa, whoa

You've been keepin' me here all these years

As your private lover

Letters came from home but I never answered

Till tonight when I got this letter from my little daughter saying

Missin' you, daddy

It's time to go

Can't blame you when you're going

This is something you've got to do

You've got to go, whoa, whoa

You've got to go, whoa, whoa

Can't blame you when you're going

This is something you've got to do

You've got to go, whoa, whoa

You've got to go, whoa, whoa

Letters came from home but I never answered

Till today when I got this letter from my little daughter saying

Missin' you, daddy

See me now, see me no more

I heard that whistle blow

I knew it's time to go

Sitting here in this train

Goin' so fast past the trees

I'm thinkin' of words to apologize

'Cause sorry ain't enough

Can't blame you when you're going

This is something you've got to do

You've got to go, whoa, whoa

You've got to go, whoa, whoa

Can't blame you
