| [00:14.66] | There's a little two-room house just outside of town |
| [00:19.73] | With a little picket fence and the blinds pulled down |
| [00:24.60] | |
| [00:26.23] | A wife with two young kids |
| [00:29.91] | She sees them off to bed |
| [00:32.10] | As she waits for her husband to come home |
| [00:39.42] | Lately she's been doing a lot of thinking |
| [00:46.04] | About the arguments and why she's hurting |
| [00:49.79] | |
| [00:52.29] | Is it worth the extra mile |
| [00:54.98] | To hang on for a little while |
| [00:58.56] | When she's had all the heartache she can stand |
| [01:03.31] | |
| [01:05.25] | And her mama's words still echo in her head |
| [01:09.00] | |
| [01:11.56] | Girl, he can't talk without his hands |
| [01:15.50] | |
| [01:18.00] | What's made you stay this long I don't understand |
| [01:20.38] | If you leave now you might still have a chance |
| [01:28.38] | |
| [01:33.01] | 'Cause girl, he can't talk without his hands |
| [01:35.39] | |
| [02:01.03] | There's a little two-room house just a few miles down |
| [02:05.21] | |
| [02:06.72] | The little girl's grown up and she's married now |
| [02:10.97] | |
| [02:13.53] | Tears on a window pane |
| [02:15.28] | |
| [02:16.28] | With a baby on the way |
| [02:18.22] | |
| [02:19.15] | As she waits for her husband to come home |
| [02:23.90] | |
| [02:25.90] | She calls her mama up on the telephone |
| [02:32.28] | She says it's getting dark and I'm all alone |
| [02:38.78] | Can we talk for a little while |
| [02:41.72] | Mama says what's the matter child |
| [02:44.97] | But she knows that her baby's been misled |
| [02:49.34] | |
| [02:51.53] | And her mama's words still echo in her head |
| [02:58.10] | She said, girl, he can't talk without his hands |
| [03:03.28] | |
| [03:04.59] | What's made you stay this long I don't understand |
| [03:08.72] | |
| [03:11.47] | If you leave now you might still have a chance |
| [03:18.03] | 'Cause girl, he can't talk without his hands |
