Right Next Door (Because Of Me)

Right Next Door(Because Of Me) - Robert Cray

Written by：Dennis Walker

I can hear the couple fighting right next door

Angry words sound clear through these thin walls

Around midnight I heard him shout "unfaithful woman"

And I knew right then the axe was gonna to fall

It's because of me it's because of me

I heard him shout "Who is he " she mumbled low

He said "Baby don't you lie to me no more "

And I'm listening through these thin walls in silent shame

As she called out my name I was right next door

It's because of me it's because of me

Because of me it's because of me

Oh she was right next door and I'm such a strong persuader

And she was just another notch on my guitar

She's gonna lose the man that really loves her

In the silence I can hear their breaking hearts

Oh ou ou

At daybreak I hear him pack and say goodbye

I can hear him slam the door and walk away

Right next door I hear that woman start to cry

I should go to her but what would I say

It's because of me it's because of me

Because of me young blood

Oh she was right next door and I'm such a strong persuader

And she was just another notch on my guitar

She's gonna lose the man that really loves her

In the silence I can hear their breaking hearts

Oh she was right next door and I'm such a strong persuader

And she was just another notch on my guitar

She's gonna lose the man that really loves her

In the silence I can hear their breaking hearts
