When I Ran Off and Left Her Vic Chesnutt

When I ran off and left her
She wasn't holding a baby
But she was holding a bottle
And a big grudge against me

I tried to learn from the psychiatrist
How to stay calm and minimize the risk
But I should've kept all those appointments
I'm a gonna need 'em, I'm 'coming disjointed

Well, alright, I shoulda known
I shoulda known better

I tried to learn from the psychiatrist
How to stay calm and minimize the risk
But I should've kept all those appointments
I'm a gonna need 'em, I'm 'coming disjointed

When I ran off and left her
I didn't look backwards
Till I was halfway to Chattanooga
On the Atlanta Connector
That's when I started flashing
On the little things that she did
All her little sayings and I started to wig
I should've kept all those appointments
I'm a gonna need 'em, I'm 'coming disjointed
