Put out the fire and point me back home
I'm not feeling myself, can't make it alone
Water the pony and hitch up the cart
Looks like I've lost the battle of old wounded heart
The coyotes are howling and cold is the breeze
And anytime soon this boy will be at ease
I fought like a warrior, she tore me apart
Looks like I've lost the battle of old wounded heart
The well has been poisoned, the vultures now rest
Knowing I can't do no more, that I've done my best
She left with my future, she fought hard and smart
And she left me for dying at old wounded heart
Yeah, she left me for dead at old wounded heart
