Better Woman Lyrics

I always lose the same old bet
Say I'm through when I forget
I smoke the same old cigarettes
Because they haven't killed me yet

Same old selfish tears I cry
It's the same old pack of lies
I'm getting good at my goodbyes
Now I don't even have to try

I'll admit when I've been wrong
But that's the same damn song
That I've been singing all along

And now I've let you down again
Just the way it's always been
Same old iron I can't bend
Since I can't remember when

Different glasses same old wine
Same old trouble on my mind
It keeps me lonesome all the time

And it's the same wind blowing at my back
Makes it tough to keep on track
And every time we play you deal the same old cards
Well I'm tryin' to be a better woman
I'm tryin' to be a better woman, baby
I'm tryin' to be a better woman
But you make it so damn hard

It's the same old place it always hurts
Same old smile, same old flirt
And I always say it could be worse
But that's the same old pile of dirt

And all my sins I would confess
Put on my Sunday best
That's the same old party dress
And I still make the same old mess

Same old me just having fun
But when all is said and done
It seems I always burn my tongue

And it's the same wind blowing at my back
Makes it tough to keep on track
And every time we play you deal the same old cards
Well I'm tryin' to be a better woman
I'm tryin' to be a better woman, baby
I'm tryin' to be a better woman
But you make it so damn hard

Well it's the same wind blowing at my back
Makes it tough to keep on track
And every time we play you deal the same old cards
Well I'm tryin' to be a better woman
I'm tryin' to be a better woman, baby
I'm tryin' to be a better woman
But you make it so damn hard
