It Don't Make The Wrong Go Away Lyrics - Jerry Leger

Reached into my pocket 

Felt around and found I had it all along 

The keys to another time and place 

Already gone 

And I could not admit at the time 

That I was too afraid 

Baby, you were right 

But that don't make the wrong go away 

Strong willed with a poor man's bible 

And the day is going slow 

The damp chill made me shiver 

And the stillness took its toll 

And I'd give you anything you ever wanted 

If I was sure it would make you stay 

Baby, you were right 

But that don't make the wrong go away 

Walked into a corner store 

Bought your favourite brand of cigarettes 

I've been so lost these days 

How soon could I forget 

That farewell kiss upon winter lips 

And words are just things that people say 

Baby, you were right 

And words don't make the wrong go away 

Baby, you were right 

But that don't make the wrong go away
