Johnny Paycheck - I Did The Right Thing lyrics

I pull into my driveway

While the day is slowly dying in the west

I look in that direction

To the setting sun and the one that loved me best

We cried and said goodbye

Seems like a million years ago or was it yesterday

She swore she'd always love

God, I wonder if she still feels that way

I did the right thing

I did the right thing

I went back to my wife

Straightened out my life

I did the right thing

I walk in to the house

And hear small voices singing, "Daddy's here"

The lady of the house puts down the beer she's drinking

She says, "Hello, dear"

While we make small talk

My mind takes a long walk back to someone else

And I close my eyes and repeat those little lies

I often tell myself

I did the right thing

I did the right thing

I went back to my wife

Straightened out my life

Lord, I did the right thing

My face is wet with teardrops

I fumble for my wrist watch, it's half past three

Once more I was dreaming of the woman

Who once said she'd die for me

But I did what was right

And it hurts me every night now that she's gone

And all my friends are proud

'Cause I gave her up to save my home

I did the right thing

Sure, I did the right thing

I went back to my wife

Straightened out my life

I did the right thing

I did the right thing
