Burr Under my Saddle

You're a burr under my saddle
You're a thorn sticking in my side
You're the gravel hidden in my boots
You're the grit blowing in my eye

You're a dark and ugly rain cloud
Blocking my view of the moon
I can't wait til the day I'm through with you
Can't see it happening soon

Well they say waking up, is hard to do
But that's never been so true
I changed my name, changed my number
But I still can't seem to lose you

I'll do whatever it takes, go to any lengths
To get you to understand
That I'm not gonna be your woman no more
And you ain't gonna be my man

You're a burr under my saddle
You're a thorn sticking in my side
You're the gravel hidden in my boots
You're the grit blowing in my eye

You're a dark and ugly rain cloud
Blocking my view of the moon
I can't wait til the day I'm through with you
Can't see it happening soon

If I find you coming round here anymore
You're gonna wish that you were dead
Like a little kid screaming in the check out line
That gets cuffed upside the head

You're a burr under my saddle

Well you said you can't live without me
I can only hope that's a fact
Cause I'm kicking you out on the side of the road
And if you're dead then you can't come back

I'd try and beat a little sense in you
If I thought it could make a dent
In that thick old skull wrapped around
That tiny little brain inside your head

You're a burr under my saddle
You're a thorn sticking in my side
You're the gravel hidden in my boots
You're the grit blowing in my eye

You're a dark and ugly rain cloud
Blocking my view of the moon
I can't wait til the day I'm through with you
Can't see it happening soon
I can't wait til the day I'm through with you
Can't see it happening soon
