Leather boots left in the rain
Hard earned living went down the drain
Daddy told me always drive with over half a tank
Still I find a way to run out on the highway

Stack of bills still to be paid
Put it off for another day
There a lot of things I should change
But I keep living the same old same

Maybe it’s in my blood
It’s just how I was made
You’d think I’d have enough
Making the same mistakes
But when it comes to love
I can’t catch a break
I wonder just how long it’s gonna take
For me to learn the hard way

Sick and tired of throwing away
Pictures I thought we would frame
Cleaning up and boxing things, it’s still so hard to believe
I got so close to picking out a ring

Maybe it’s in my blood
It’s just how I was made
You’d think I’d have enough
Making the same mistakes
But when it comes to love
I can’t catch a break
I wonder just how long it’s gonna take
For me to learn the hard way

Maybe it’s in my blood
It’s just how I was made
But I’ve had enough
Making the same mistakes
But when it comes to love
I sure could use a break
I wonder just how long it’s gonna take
For me to learn the hard way
