I got trampled by my woman
I been cheated and double-crossed
There was a coup in the alter
I had a friend but he got lost
Chorus
They say time can take the pain away
Because time changes everything
But time forgot to change my heart
Yes time forgot to change my heart
He took my woman into the country
And they had a baby girl
And she grew to look just like me
Its a mean and wicked world
So I took a train into that country
And I found their little shack
I went to drink until the sunset
And in the darkness I came back
Chorus
They say time can take the pain away
Because time changes everything
But time forgot to change my heart
Yes time forgot to change my heart
Outside their window I was creeping
Wicked thoughts they filled my mind
And as my old friends lay there sleeping
I snuck in from behind
I knelt down by my babys bedside
And I grazed her lily face
Please listen to your mother dear
For your father is a disgrace
Chorus
She said time can take the pain away
Because time changes everything
But time forgot to change my heart
Yes time forgot to change my heart
