| Why’d you take my man to Idaho?
 | 
| He’s had my heart sometime.
 | 
| And all he left me is this empty bottle.
 | 
| I dont wanna wanna go to Idaho,
 | 
| I like my home just fine.
 | 
| Dont give me promises unless you follow!
 | 
| You said yourself you’ve been on a lonely ride.
 | 
| It’s a bit cold outside on the drive home.
 | 
| And this bumpy drive is making it hard to hide, my crying eyes, on the ride
 | 
| home.
 | 
| But you’ve got yourself to blame, so don’t do that cocaine no more.
 | 
| I’m by myself, I’m by myself.
 | 
| and I know I said that I liked when you were bad before
 | 
| but I’m by myself, I’m by myself
 | 
| Why’d you take my man to Idaho?

 | 
| I dont wanna wanna go to Idaho,

| I like my home just fine.
 | 
| Don’t give me promises unless you follow!
 | 
| I find myself so low when the days go by,
 | 
| wasting away some time till you ride home.
 | 
| and you said «Don't fret», you’ve written a thousand lines, I guess
 | 
| i’ll just sit and wait till tomorrow.
 | 
| But you’ve got yourself to blame,
 | 
| So don’t do that cocaine no more.
 | 
| I’m by myself, I’m by myself
 | 
| I know I said that I liked when you were bad before,

| Out there, there’s nothing for me but potatos! |
