I Bought The Shoes

I Bought The Shoes
Designer names and diamond rings
Are just some of the finer things
I thought it took to keep her satisfied
But a bank account and credit cards
A circle drive through an acre yard
Couldn't fill that lonesome feeling
That she had inside

I bought her fancy clothes for all occasions
And that new car so she could go
Just any old where she pleased
I bought that golden band she wore
On the hand that closed the door
And I bought the shoes that just walked out on me
Leaving early and staying out late
I thought for sure her love would wait
Until the day that I could find the time
But all the that she expected
Were all the things that I neglected
For what she wanted most from me
Would not have cost a dime
I bought the golden band she wore
On the hand that closed the door
And I bought the shoes that just walked out on me
Yes, I bought the shoes that just walked out on me
