I found a letter just yesterday And what it say I can't disclose I read that letter and every word that it say And my heart it just froze [Chorus] Ain't it a shame, ain't it a shame Ain't it a shame, such a sad, sad shame My baby's been runnin' around, all around this town With another man I packed her stuff up, put it out on the front porch When she gets home she'll surely see You know it was so hard goin' through our life together Figurin' out what belongs to you and what belongs to me [Chorus] So many times I've forgiven her So much time I can never get back I don't want to know how long it's been goin' on I just want to leave this town and never look back [Chorus] Ain't it a shame
