He Drove Her Out Of His Mind
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
For years she tried to make it all work
Put up with his hillbilly ways
She gave it her all till the love finally died
Then she left him one day
Though he turned to the bottle
And he turned to other women
But never a comfort to find
Try as he would he never could
Drive her out of his mind
He'd call me at night lost in his dreams
Asking where he'd gone wrong
He talk and he'd cry and I'd sit and listen
Till he's pass out and I'd hang up the phone
They say he was drunk when he went off the highway
Traveling at a high rate of speed
But I'm of a mind he knew what he was doing
When he drove his car into the tree
Though he turned to the bottle
And he turned to other women
But never a comfort to find
Last night on the highway at a hundred and ten
He drove her out of his mind
