Apartment #9 (feat. Georgette Jones) - Mark Chesnutt

Just follow the stairway To this lonely world of mine You'll find me waiting here In apartment number nine Not so very long ago You walked away from me And after all the plans we made You decided to be free Loneliness surrounds me Without your arms around me And the sun will never shine In apartment number nine I keep waiting in this lonely room Just incase you change your mind You'll find me waiting here In apartment number nine Loneliness surrounds me Without your arms around me And the sun will never shine In apartment number nine No, the sun will never shine In apartment number nine

Woman, woman I know you better Probably even better Than you even know yourself by now Now woman, where do you think you're going? You know you're not going To get any further than your mama's house Before you turn around and come running back I know this and you know that You're just mad and there's a chance A really good chance that I'm wrong again I usually am But girl you know as sure as rain I'm always right about one thing I know a little fight can change I'm your man, you're my woman Woman you know I'm sorry For me being such a sorry Lousy, inconsiderate so and so So woman now that we've got that over How 'bout we skip over the part where you leave me Standing in your dust and start making up Glad to have you back I know this and you know that You're just mad and there's a chance A really good chance that I'm wrong again I usually am But girl you know as sure as rain I'm always right about one thing I know a little fight can change I'm your man, you're my woman I know this and you know that You're just mad and there's a chance A really good chance that I'm wrong again I usually am But girl you know as sure as rain I'm always right about one thing I might be a pain but still the fact remains I'm your man, you're my woman

There's a Bible on the dresser And a sign hung on the door And a woman in my arms who shouldn't be I'm to the point of no returning But I've been here before This cheating life is nothing new to me There's someone to be considered So I call her on the phone And say the job is taking longer than I planned I don't have the heart to tell her That a stranger's turned me on And I'm headed for the broken promise land Tonight I'm crossing over And I'll reach the cheating side And I'll hate myself for coming here again Where the streets are paved with misery And lives are built on lies A place they call the broken promise land I found a note left on the dresser And a key left in the door And on the floor I found her golden wedding band Guess she finally had to tell me She's not waiting anymore She's headed for the broken promise land Tonight she's crossing over And she'll reach the cheating side And I'll hate myself for giving her the chance 'Cause the streets are paved with misery And lives are built on lies A place they call the broken promise land And it's more than I can stand
