Can’t Nobody Say I Didn’t Try

Delbert McClinton

I was there when she fell for the first time
I picked her up and saw the heartache in her eyes
I guess I knew right then how little chance I had to win
But can't nobody say I didn't try

She was nineteen years old and already lonely
Lord only knows how many men she's tried
Why she went from man to man I'll never understand
But can't nobody say I didn't try

I thought that I was just the man to tame her
And save her from the wild side of life
But the wild side had already claimed her
Living way out on the edge that's what she loves

I read something in a book once about women
Like a rose they last while they last
But she only blooms at night there under the neon lights
But can't nobody say I didn't try

She only blooms at night there under the neon lights
But can't nobody say I didn't try
