I came in as the sun came up
She...glared at me over her coffee cup
She said...where you been
so I thought real hard and said
I fell asleep in that hammock in the yard
She said, you don't know it boy, but
you just blew it, and I said
well that's my story and I'm stickin' to it
That's my story
Oh, that's my story
Well, I ain't got a witness
and I can't prove it
but that's my story and I'm stickin' to it
I got that deer-in-the-headlight look
She read my face like the cover of a book and said
Don't expect me to believe all that static
'cause just last week I threw that hammock in the attic
My skin got so thin so you could see right through it
and I stuttered Well that's my story and I'm stickin t-t-to it
That's my story
Well, that's my story
Yeah I ain't got a witness, and I can't prove it
but that's my story and I'm stickin' to it
(SPOKEN)
You know the time comes when a wise man knows
the best thing that he can do
is just look her in the eye and beg for mercy and
face the bitter truth...
Well honey me and the boys played cards all night
There wasn't no hanky-panky not a woman in sight
I know I should called and baby I, I...I'm real sorry
Let's get a cellular phone and then you won't have to worry
You know how much I love ya and darlin' I'm ready to prove it
And that's my story and I'm stickin' to it
That's my story
oh, that's my story
Well I ain't got a witness and ya know I can't prove it
But that's my story and I'm stickin' to it
You know I ain't gonna do a thing darlin' unless you approve it
Well that's my story and I'm stickin' to it
