"Time Wounds All Heels" lyrics - HANK THOMPSON

You had the best, who could ask for more
A girl who was just the right kind
But you weren't satisfied with that
You had adventures you had to find
The bridge you burned the love you spurned
And you don't care how she feels
But you'll get the tinge of fate's revenge
'Cause time wounds all heels

The birds are going to come home to roost
And you're going to rue the day
It's going to be 'Katy bar the door'
There's going to be the devil to pay
No need to look in the crystal ball
To see what your future reveals
You can read the writing on the wall
'Cause time wounds all heels

After Mary there was Rosalie
And wasn't the next one Jane
That was a long drawn out affair
But you finally brought her pain
Now every cheater is taking a chance
If from the bottom he deals
So pay the fiddler and start your dance
'Cause time wounds all heels

The birds are going to come home to roost...
