Songtexte How Many Chances - Little Texas

I know I might be way out of line here
But I can't sit by and watch you cry another tear
'Cause that man you're mad about went and fooled around
And let you down again
I can't take the thought of you taking him back in

How many chances is he gonna get?
How many roses have to be sent?
How many lonely nights?
How many flimsy alibis?
'Til you've had enough of him
Just give up on him and get on with your life
How many chances is he gonna get
Before I get mine?

I don't know how someone can look at you
And not think about how much he stands to lose
If it were up to me, girl you'd never be
Lonely, sad, or hurt
Your broken heart's tearing me apart
It's not what you deserve

How many chances is he gonna get?
How many dozen roses have to be sent?
How many lonely nights?
How many flimsy alibis?
'Til you've had enough of him
Just give up on him and get on with your life
How many chances is he gonna get
Before I get mine?

How many lonely nights?
How many flimsy alibis?
'Til you've had enough of him
Just give up on him and get on with your life
How many chances is he gonna get
Before I get mine?
Before I get mine?
