Cold Hard Facts Of Life - Porter Wagoner[00:00:00]

I got back in town a day[00:00:08]

Before I'd planned to[00:00:11]

I smiled and said [00:00:15]

I'll sure surprise my wife[00:00:17]

I don't think I'll phone [00:00:23]

I'll just head on home[00:00:27]

For I didn't know[00:00:30]

The cold hard facts of life[00:00:32]

I passed a little wine store on the corner[00:00:38]

I pictured big champagne by candle light[00:00:45]

I stopped the car right[00:00:52]

Then got out and hurried in[00:00:55]

My mind not on the cold hard facts of life[00:01:00]

A stranger stood[00:01:07]

There laughing by the counter[00:01:09]

He said "I'll take two bottles of your best"[00:01:15]

Her husband's out of town[00:01:22]

And there's a party[00:01:25]

He winkled as if to say[00:01:30]

You know the rest[00:01:33]

I left the store two steps[00:01:37]

Behind the stranger[00:01:39]

From there to my house[00:01:44]

His car stayed in sight[00:01:46]

But it wasn't till he turned into my drive[00:01:51]

That I learned[00:01:57]

I was witnessing the cold hard facts of life[00:01:59]

I drove around the block till I was dizzy[00:02:06]

Each time the noise[00:02:13]

Came louder from within[00:02:15]

And then I saw our bottle there beside me[00:02:21]

And I drank a fifth of[00:02:28]

Courage and walked in[00:02:30]

Lord you should've seen their frantic faces[00:02:36]

They screamed and cried [00:02:43]

Please put away that knife[00:02:45]

I guess I'll go to hell[00:02:50]

Or I'll rot here in this cell[00:02:54]

But who taught who[00:02:58]

The cold hard facts of life[00:03:00]

Who taught who the cold hard facts of life[00:03:05]
