I left my home up in the hill

Far behind me

I left my wife with unpaid bills

She can't find me

I'm trying out the world for size

Find that it's not paradise

It's lonely, oh

I've been alone and that ain't right

City ways are strange to me

I can't make it

For it's not like it ought to be

And I can't take it

Gotta face the truth one day

Man can't always run away from trouble, oh

I've been a fool and that ain't right

One day soon I'm going back

Where she still minds me

And then out of line and off the track

But that's behind me

I fooled around and did it well

But I just couldn't ring the bell

Without her, no

It's taken twenty days and twenty nights

To prove me wrong and make her right

Twenty days and twenty nights

I was wrong and she was right

All along

I miss her

Oh, how I miss her

Oh how I miss her, oh how
