Salt On My Wounds

Lyrics

One last slow blues to close the show
 I see you dancin' with her, and Lord, it hurts me so
 And I wanna know why you brought her around here so soon
 Why would you wanna rub salt in my wound?
 I'm not bitter, and I won't hold no grudge
 I know she's your woman now, and I'll try not to touch
 But I still wanna know why you brought her around here so soon
 Baby, why you wanna rub salt in my wound?
 Couldn't you just wait 'til the healing hands of time
 Squeeze this pain from my heart
 And couldn't you wait just a little bit while longer
 'Til my pride isn't torn apart? Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
 ♪
 You're gonna take your prize now, and just walk away
 I'm gonna try to hold on and love another day
 But I still wanna know why
 You brought her around here so soon
 Baby, why you wanna rub salt in my wound?
 Baby, why you wanna rub salt in my wound?
 Why, baby?
 Why, baby?
 Why you wanna rub salt in my wound?
 Why, baby?
 Why?
 Why?
 Why would you rub salt in my wound?
 Why?
 Why?
 Why you wanna rub salt in my wound
 Why?
 Why, baby?
