Done Me Wrongs
Song by Jessie Ritter
Got my baby in a covered wagon
Headin’ out on that road today
No way of knowing what’s before us
But the sun will shine and we’ll be okay
Shopkeep told one too many white lies
Shop closed down on judgement day
Lost that job but headed for a homestead
Westward like the Okies
Heartbreak smells a lot like freedom, the best-laid plans all go to waste
Done me wrongs ain’t done me nothing
But help to turn another page
Caught that man in the arms of a woman
Ten years she’ll look a lot like me
Stayed the night at my baby sister’s
Cursed his name relentlessly
I don’t want nothing I don’t have
And I don’t have nothing I don’t need
But I got all that a girl could ask for
Two hands to pray and a voice to sing
Two hands to pray and a voice to sing
Headin’ out on that road today
No way of knowing what’s before us
But the sun will shine and we’ll be okay
Shopkeep told one too many white lies
Shop closed down on judgement day
Lost that job but headed for a homestead
Westward like the Okies
Heartbreak smells a lot like freedom, the best-laid plans all go to waste
Done me wrongs ain’t done me nothing
But help to turn another page
Caught that man in the arms of a woman
Ten years she’ll look a lot like me
Stayed the night at my baby sister’s
Cursed his name relentlessly
I don’t want nothing I don’t have
And I don’t have nothing I don’t need
But I got all that a girl could ask for
Two hands to pray and a voice to sing
Two hands to pray and a voice to sing
