Ain't it sad
To stand and watch love die?
Ain't it sad
To stand and watch love die?
Unfaithful wife
I took her life
In the twinkling of an eye
And ain't it sad
To stand and watch love die?
I found her in the arms
Of my best friend
And I vowed she's never gonna
Hurting me again
And in a bit of anger
I shoot them where they lied
And the last words she spoke
"God forgive me", then she died
And ain't it sad
To stand and watch love die?
The neighbors gathered round
So they could see
"Oh, my God, what have you done?"
They started asking me
So I placed a gun up to my head
And this was my reply
Neighbor, ain't it sad
To stand and watch love die?
Ain't it sad
To stand and watch love die?
Neighbor, ain't it sad
To stand and watch love die?
Oh, ain't it sad
To stand and watch love die?
