when the cat goes out

Alan Jackson

I'll do anything I can to keep our love together one more time
Sorry I deceived you
You made it hard for me to stay in line

Loving you came easy, but for reasons I'll explain I drift away
When the sun goes down and the cat goes out
The mice will play

Last week you went to vegas with your friends
And left me here alone
I didn't mind you leavin'
But it hurts when you don't call me when you're gone

See my mind begins to wander
And I'll find someone to take the hurt away
When the sun goes down and the cat goes out
The mice will play

Loving you came easy, but for reasons I've explained I drift away
When the sun goes down and the cat goes out
The mice will play
