Dwight Yoakam : Last Chance for a Thousand Years :
"Sorry You Asked"
Chorus—
You’ll be sorry you asked me the reason
That she’s not here with me tonight
I know you were just acting polite
You’ll be sorry you every asked why
We started having problems in August last year
So thinkgs had been kinda rought for quite awhile
And you know how you think it’ll work itself out
Well, mister, that thought’s wrong by a long, long mile
Chorus
I might’ve, should’ve seen that we were drifting apart
But I was in what I guess you’d call denial
And I always heart they say the you’re the last one to know
Well, buddy, I was last by a long, long, while
Chorus
Okay, we both have a tendency to overreact
So I can’t really tell you who’s at fault
But there were certain third parties, well her sister for one
Who helped bring our reconciling to a drop-dead halt
Now, aren’t you sorry you asked me the reason
That she’s not here with me tonight
And I know you were probably just acting polite
But I’m sure sorry you ever asked why
Aren’t you sorry you ever asked why
I’m sure sorry you ever asked why
Did I tell you how she tried to have me locked out of the house
I had to go hire a lawyer and all
But I know that it was mostly her family’s idea
I could hear ‘em tell her what to say every time I’d call (fade out)
