Yes, Carolyn, a man will do that Sometimes on his own and sometimes when he's lonely I believe a man might do that, Sometimes out of spite But Carolyn, a man will do that always When he's treated bad at home. Yes, Carolyn, a man will do that Sometimes on his own and sometimes when he's lonely And I believe a man might do that sometimes out of spite But, Carolyn, a man will do that always When he's treated bad at home.

Since Joe's link isn't working any more, I thought I'd look up Sam Hill from Merle Haggard. Didn't find out if he wrote it or not... From Sam Hill Sam Hill There's a certain hill outside of town called Sam Hill |
