Heart Of A Lonely Girl - Dierks Bentley

Twenty seven days i’ve been out on the road

I’m a nervous wreck, I gotta get back home

There’s a young bride waiting for me all alone

Lord, how she misses me

I can see her sitting in the kitchen chair

In a cotton dress with her long black hair

But a woman ain’t pretty if a man ain’t there

That i can’t afford to be

It’s a shame, it’s a shame

She won’t be the one to blame

Oh the hurtinest thing in the whole wide world

Is the heart of a lonely girl

Like a red-tail fox to a blue tick hound

She’s the hottest thing for miles around

All them other boys in our hometown

Got tricks hid up their sleeves

Now it ain’t her that i don’t trust

She’s pretty and pure as diamond dust

But lonesome is this lonesome girl

She can’t help for what she needs

It’s a shame, it’s a shame

She won’t be the one to blame

Oh the hurtinest thing in the whole wide world

Is the heart of a lonely girl

The heart of a lonely girl

The heart of a lonely girl

It’s the hurtinest thing in the whole wide world

The heart of a lonely girl

Daddy was a rambler just like me

I guess the apple don’t fall too far from the tree

When i ask why momma had to go that day

Well he don’t know and she won’t say

It’s a shame, it’s a shame

She won’t be the one to blame

Oh the hurtinest thing in the whole wide world

Is the heart of a lonely girl

Yeah, it’s a shame, it’s a shame

She won’t be the one to blame

Yeah the hurtinest thing in the whole wide world

Is the heart of a lonely girl

Yeah the hurtinest thing in the whole wide world

Is the heart of a lonely girl
