(Dwight Yoakam)I've seen 'em watch you andMake plans what they'll do whenSomeday you are no longer mineI've heard 'em carry on aboutHow when I'm finally gone they'reGonna treat you oh so fineBut I could have told them thatThey'd never hold you if they triedI could have told themYou bend and fold men whoThought they would have you for a prizeI could have told themThose foolish soul'd men thatThey'd never hold you if they tried HeyI've been made real aware ofPleasure that they'll share withYou soon as I slip your mindI've listened to 'em boast howI'll just be a ghost onceThey start takin' up your timeBut I could have told them thatThey'd never hold you if they triedI could have told them thatThey'd never hold you if they tried Hey
