this is from the dolly parton tribut album.this song is off of dolly parton's 3rd bluegrass album halos & horns





oh,you're out there tonight with another

and my pain is so dreadfully sharp

i picture you with her and shudder

it's like a dagger through the heart



do you think that my feelings don't matter

or your cheatin or hurtful remarks

when you leave me all broken and shattered

it's like a dagger through the heart

 



(chours)

oh i know i'm a fool to keep staying

when you've made hurtin me such an art

tossed around like a used box of crayons

it's like a dagger through the heart



oh you've cut me to pieces so often

like a knife or a poisonous dart

i would be better of in my coffin,yes

like a dagger through the heart



(repeat chours)
