I left my home up in the hills far behind me
I left my wife with unpaid bills, she can't find me
I'm trying out the world for size, but find that it's
not paradise, it's lonely
Now for twenty days and twenty nights I've been alone
And that ain't right without her
City ways are strange to me, and I can't take it
For it's not like it ought to be, and I can't make it
I've gotta face the truth one day, a man can't always
run away from trouble
No, now for twenty days and twenty nights I've been a fool
And that ain't right, without her
One day soon I'm goin' back, would she still mind me?
I've been out of line and off the track, but that's behind me
I fooled around and did it well, but I just couldn't ring
the bell without her, oohhh
It's taken twenty days and twenty nights to prove me
wrong and make her right
Twenty days and twenty nights I was wrong and she was right,
all along
And I miss her
Oh, how I miss her, oh how I miss her,
oh how I miss her...
