Unfaithful Servant - The Band

Unfaithful servant

I hear you leavin' soon in the mornin'

What did you do to the lady

That she’s gonna have to send you away?

Unfaithful servant

You don’t have to say you’re sorry

If you done it just for the spite

Or did ya do it just for the glory?

Like a stranger you’ve turned your back

Left your keys and gone to pack

But bear in mind who’s to blame, and all the shame

She really cared, the time she spared

And the home you shared

Unfaithful servant

I can hear the whistle blowing

Yes, that train is comin'

And soon you’ll be goin'

Let us not bow our heads

For we won’t be complainin'

Life has been good to us all

Even when that sky has been rainin'

To take it like a grain of salt

Is all I can do and it’s no one’s fault

Makes no difference if we fade away

It’s just as it was

And it’s much to cold for me to stay

Goodbye to that country home

So long to a lady I have known

Farewell to my other side

I’d best just take it in stride

Unfaithful servant

You’ll learn to find your place

I can see it in your smile

And, yes, I can see it in your face

The memories will linger on

But the good old days, they’re all gone

Oh, lonesome servant, can’t you see

That we’re still one and the same, just you and me
