I'd Be Better off (In a Pine Box) by Doug Stone

I said, "The night you left me nothin' worse could ever happen"
But seeing you with someone else proved that I was wrong
When your eyes met mine, I knew that you were gone forever
Along with all the reasons I had for hanging on

I'd be better off in a pine box, on a slow train back to Georgia
Or in the gray walls of a prison doing time
I think I'd rather die and go to hell and face the devil
Than to lie here with you and him together on my mind

I always thought that someday we might get back together
I just thought you needed time to spread your wings and fly
When I saw the lovin' way you held onto each other
It was all that I could do, not to break right down and cry

I'd be better off in a pine box, on a slow train back to Georgia
Or in the gray walls of a prison doing time
I think I'd rather die and go to hell and face the devil
Than to lie here with you and him together on my mind

Girl, I'd be better off in a pine box, on a slow train back to Georgia
Or in the gray walls of a prison doing time
I think I'd rather die and go to hell and face the devil
Than to lie here with you and him together on my mind
I can't lie here with you and him together on my mind
