David Allan Coe – Bossier City

By: B.J. Bourgoin

My hands are shaking and I'm sadly learning

The truth behind your innocent disguise

You never thought I knew that you had been untrue

But I once saw the devil somewhere in your eyes

And now you got the nerve to ask me where I'm going

And I don't believe I'd tell you if I knew

I'll be gone when the sun comes up tomorrow

I believe it's time to say good-bye to you

And it sure smells like snow in Bossier City

But there ain't no weather quite as cold as you

I'd sooner stand in Mother Nature's anger

Than to spend another lonely night with you

I'm talking but I'm feeling you're not listening

My words they just fall heavy on the floor

Yes, it's true that you knew I would not stay forever

And you won't see me crying when I walk out your door

And it sure smells like snow in Bossier City

But there ain't no weather as cold as you

I'd sooner stand in Mother Nature's anger (fade)
