I left my home up in the hills far behind me
I left my wife with unpaid bills, she can't find me
I'm trying out the world for size
To find that it's not paradise, it's lonely
Wooh, now for twenty days and twenty nights
I've been alone and that ain't right
Without her


City ways are strange to me, I can't make it
For it's not like it ought to be, and I can't take it
I've got to face the truth one day
A man can't always run away from trouble
No, now for twenty days and twenty nights
I've been a fool and that ain't right
Without her


One day soon I'm going back, will she still mind me
I've been out of line and off the track but that's behind me
I've fooled around and did it well
But I just couldn't ring the bell without her
No, it's taken twenty days and twenty nights
To prove me wrong and make her right
Twenty days and twenty nights, I was wrong and she was right
All alone, and I miss her, Oh how I miss her
Oh how I miss her, how I miss her
