Lyrics

How do I stop a woman scheming?
Sippin' bourbon on this back porch swing
Her lies hit harder than a summer storm
Dramatic scenes that keep me up till morn

Why do folks do this kinda thing?
Like they missed the good Lord's truth inside
Scheming's got me pissed, fit to fight or sing
Leaves a man wonderin' why he even tried

Makes me wanna holler at the midnight sky
Or cry like a fool under neon lights
Every twisted plot, every alibi
Burns like cheap tequila on a lonesome night

Why do folks do this kinda thing?
Like they missed the good Lord's truth inside
Scheming's got me pissed, fit to fight or sing
Leaves a man wonderin' why he even tried

I'm done with the games in this one-horse town
Need a straight-shootin' heart, no runnin' around
Feelings on the dash, headin' for the county line
Leavin' all that schemin' far behind

How do I stop this scheming?
Kickin' dust, finally breathin' free.
