Didn't I Lyrics


Montgomery Gentry Didn't I


Didn't I make you proud?
Go and lay my life down when you called my name?
I thought I stood for somethin'
Was doin' the right thing when I went away

Now being back should be so simple
But I keep gettin' these mixed signals from everyone
Why do folks sit and judge me
Who aint seen what I've seen or did what I done?

(Chorus)
Didn't I burn?
Didn't I bleed enough for you?
I faced your fears,
Felt pain,
So you won't have to
Yeah didn't I do my best
And wasn't home here when I left?

I've seen boys fall to pieces
Grown men cry out for Jesus 'til they're black and blue
I thought God was on our side...
Weren't we supposed to be the good guys that would never lose?

'Cause I don't see no ticker tape
or five mile parade sayin' "thank you son"
Just folks that sit and judge me
Who aint seen what I've seen or did what I done

(Repeat Chorus)
Didn't I burn?
Didn't I bleed enough for you?
I faced your fears,
Felt pain,
So you won't have to
Yeah didn't I do my best
And wasn't home here when I left?
