Lyrics:

Sittin' in a honky-tonk redneck bar
Watchin' some cat play the steel guitar
Lookin' for love in the wrong place again
It's a sin
There she is
Leaving with another man

Oh, love, take me back home where
My heart's not healing over
The love I lost with you, Diane
Sweet Diane

Walked down the alleway late that night
A dark man in glasses walked up with a knife
I said "You must be crazy, I got nothing left
She took it all, y'all"
There she goes
Leaving with another Joe

Oh, love, take me back home where
My heart's not healing over
The love I lost with you, Diane
Sweet Diane

Sitting in the living room, playing my guitar
Thinking 'bout an easy way to go out far
'Cause she's somewhere
Loving another man

Oh, love, take me back home where
My heart's not healing over
The love I lost with you, Diane
Sweet Diane
Diane
Diane
Diane
