Vern Gosdin The Number lyrics

I was pourin' my heart out, to a stranger at the bar
We talked about what happens, when a man goes too far
Then he mentioned this woman, he knew across town
Oh, he said she was somethin' to behold in a gown
She knows how to hold you, like no woman can
She's pure satisfaction, to a sad lonely man

When the guilt in my conscience, had packed up and gone
He gave me her number and I went to the phone
My whole world just came to the end of the line

‘Cause the number he gave me, was mine

I wanted to hurt him, with all that I had
Oh, but I knew it was my fault that she turned out bad
God knows I wanted to lay down and die
‘Cause the number he gave me, was mine
Oh, the number he gave me, was mine
