What Did You Expect Me To Do
George Strait · The Ultimate Collection [Madacy 2 Disc] [2006]
Sometimes I smile when you stayed home for awhile.
What did you expect me to do?
I always cry each time you told a lie.
What did you expect me to do?
Chours:
Each time I forgave you, you grew bolder,
And each time you hurt me my heart grew colder
Sure, I love you but I found someone new.
What did you expect me to do?
--- Instrumental ---
Chours:
Each time I forgave you, you grew bolder,
And each time you hurt me my heart grew colder
Sure, I love you but I found someone new.
What did you expect me to do?..
