He Told Her the City Was Killing Him

Lyrics

He told her the city was killing him
 Everyone was stacked in a row
 She was thirty five years old
 He was the first man she ever fell in with
 The first man she ever lived with
 Her friends told her it was a mistake
 But she quit her job and used the money she'd saved
 ♪
 They packed up her car and drove
 To the dessert and the new used out home
 She got a job in a bank
 He got drunk one night and threw a chair at her while she was sleeping
 ♪
 Now she's staring out the window getting old
 Such a price to pay for not wanting to live alone
 ♪
 She never knew where he'd go
 But he was hardly ever home
 And he said the dessert was killing him
 So they packed her car and moved
 They pick up and start again
 They'd fall apart and start again
 Lose a job and start again
 Get bruised up and start again
 Now she's staring out the window getting old
 Such a price to pay
 Now she's staring out the window getting old
 Such a price to pay for not wanting to be alone
