Lyrics

[Verse 1] Long before the screen door slammed She was out of Xenia A stranger could have loved that town But she had to leave [Pre-Chorus] I wish I'd gotten to know her Before I fell in love [Chorus] I could say who's to blame Say who's the man in this cautionary tale But I swore I'd be true, and I'll swear and I'll swear 'Til Kitten's out of jail [Verse 2] It was like a TV show The way she stole that car Easy now to criticize Easy now to talk [Pre-Chorus] I thought my luck was changing I guess I was wrong [Chorus] I could say who's to blame Say who's the man in this cautionary tale But I swore I'd be true, and I'll swear and I'll swear 'Til Kitten's out of jail [Bridge] Didn't want to be a slave Just turned out that way [Pre-Chorus] I wish I'd gotten to know her Before I fell in love [Chorus] I could say she's to blame Say she's the man in this cautionary tale But I swore I'd be true, and I'll swear and I'll swear 'Til Kitten's out of jail
