I'm walking through the back streets
Of an old lonesome town
I've come to see the places that
My darling hangs around

What is it that lures him
These things I had to see
My heart must know the reason
He's lost his love for me


In and out the honkytonks
I covered one by one
I saw the things he talked about
Saw his kind of fun

And if he wants this way of life
I'm glad he set me free
Now my heart knows the reason
He's lost his love for me
