I came in as the sun came up
She glared at me
over her coffee cup
She said where you been
So I thought real hard
and said
I fell asleep in that hammock
in the yard
She said you don't know it boy
but you just blew it
I said well that's my story
and I'm stickin' to it
That's my story
Oh that's my story
Well I ain't got a witness
and I can't prove it
But that's my story
and I'm stickin' to it
Well I got that deer
in the headlight look
She read my face
like the cover of a book
And said don't expect me
to believe all that static
'Cause just last week I threw
that hammock in the attic
My skin got so thin you
could see right through it
And I stuttered
Well that's my story
and I'm stickin' t-to it
That's my story
Oh that's my story
Yeah I ain't got a witness
and I can't prove it
But that's my story
and I'm stickin' to it
You know the time comes
when a wise man knows
the best thing that he can do
Is just look her in the eye
and beg for mercy
and face the bitter truth
Well honey me and the boys
playin' cards all night
There wasn't no hanky panky
Not a woman in sight
I know I shoulda called
and baby I'm real sorry
Let's get a cellular phone
and you won't have to worry
You know how much
I love you
And darlin'
I'm ready to prove it
And that's my story
and I'm stickin' to it
That's my story
Oh that's my story
Well I ain't got a witness
and you know I can't prove it
But that's my story
and I'm stickin' to it
You know I ain't gonna
do a thang darlin'
unless you approve it
Well that's my story
and I'm stickin' to it
