[00:00.00]I Did the Right Thing - Johnny Paycheck
[00:05.86]Written by：B.Braddock
[00:11.72]I pull into my driveway
[00:14.31]While the day is slowly dying in the west
[00:23.21]I look in that direction
[00:25.94]To the setting sun and the one who loved me best
[00:34.55]We cried and said goodbye
[00:37.43]Seems like a million years ago or was it yesterday
[00:46.13]She swore she'd always love me
[00:49.24]God I wonder if she still feels that way
[00:57.45]I did the right thing
[01:02.77]I did the right thing
[01:09.45]I went back to my wife
[01:12.27]Straightened out my life
[01:16.57]I did the right thing
[01:23.10]I walk in to the house
[01:25.99]And hear small voices singing Daddy's here
[01:34.74]The lady of the house puts down the beer she's drinking
[01:40.35]And says Hello dear
[01:46.39]While we make small talk
[01:48.90]My mind takes a long walk back to someone else
[01:57.56]And I close my eyes and repeat those little lies
[02:02.82]I often tell myself
[02:09.15]I did the right thing
[02:14.08]I did the right thing
[02:20.68]I went back to my wife
[02:23.46]Straightened out my life
[02:25.84]Lord I did the right thing
[02:40.42]My face is wet with teardrops
[02:43.08]I fumble for my wrist watch it's half past three
[02:51.89]Once more I was dreaming of the woman
[02:55.36]Who once said she'd die for me
[03:02.93]But I did what was right
[03:05.48]And it hurts me every night now that she's gone
[03:14.42]And all my friends are proud
[03:17.47]'Cause I gave her up to save my home
[03:25.91]I did the right thing
[03:30.75]Sure I did the right thing
[03:37.50]I went back to my wife
[03:40.37]Straightened out my life
[03:44.76]I did the right thing
[03:51.37]I did the right thing
