Dwight Yoakam › Lyrics › Train in Vain

You say you stand by your man
Tell me somethin' I don't understand
You said you love me and that's a fact
And then you left me, said you felt trapped

Well, some things you can explain away
But the heartache's in me till this day
Did you stand by me, no, not at all
Did you stand by me, no way

All the times when we were close
I'll remember these things the most
I see all my dreams come tumblin' down
I can't be happy without you around

So alone, I keep the wolves at bay
And there's only one thing I can say
Did you stand by me, no, not at all
Did you stand by me, no way

You must explain why this must be
Did you lie when you spoke to me?
Did you stand by me, no, not at all
Now I got a job but it don't pay
I need new clothes, I need somewhere to stay

But without all of these things I can do
But without your love, I won't make it through
But you don't understand my point of view
I suppose there's nothin' I can do

Did you stand by me, no, not at all
Did you stand by me, no way
Did you stand by me, no, not at all
Did you stand by me, no way

You must explain why this must be
Did you lie when you spoke to me?
Did you stand by me?

Did you stand by me, no, not at all
Did you stand by me, no way
Did you stand by me, no, not at all
Did you stand by me, no way
