I Went Out of My Way

Roy Drusky · Roy Drusky (Vocalion) [1965]

(Vic McAlpin - Roy Drusky - Bobbie Jean Thomas)



I went out of my way to make you happy

To love you when your other love went wrong

I went out of my way when you were lonely

Now I'm out of my mind since you've gone.



I ask the fool on the stool next to me

What do you do with so much misery

Just one look in his eyes and I could see

He was out of his mind just like me.



I went out of my way to be near you

But one too many nights we were alone

I went out of my way to try and please you

Now I'm out of my mind since you've gone.



I ask the fool on the stool next to me

What do you do with so much misery

Just one look in his eyes and I could see

He was out of his mind just like me...
