WEDDING BANDS
Janie Anne took off the rings
She used to wear 'em every day
Now she's alone an' feels silly
Cryin' cuz she feels that way
CHORUS
What is Married when it's Over
What is left: Just rings of gold
Leavin' white clean bands of Lonely
Where they used to Have and Hold
____________________
Janie Anne is really angry
Janie Anne is often sad
Cuz he left her for another
Old, old story: Pretty bad
No one says much to her now
About her man and what he done
He's runnin' round town lookin' OK
All she looks is 'bout-to-run
CHORUS
All her friends agree with Janie
All her family's really kind
Wouldn't be so bad if only
Night would pass, she'd be just fine
Same lame story leads to nothin'
People go their busy ways
Janie Anne just waits her heart out
Fillin' chores into her days
CHORUS
If you're left behind, you know that
What she's feelin' is so low
You want to rise, but Hope ain't willin'
An' you got nowheres to go
So you sit and watch the TV
Wonder where the Time has been
Why the rings inside the drawer
Make it so clear you didn't win
CHORUS
Repeat First Verse
CHORUS
