Two Sides To Every Story
Composer(s): Bil Owens - Dolly Parton
Performer(s): Porter Wagoner & Dolly Parton



Both:
Two sides to every story
We can straighten this out, it will take time
Two sides to every story
You tell yours and I'll tell mine
Porter:
Well where were you last night when I came home
When I came in you were out and gone
Dolly:
Well I waited up till after two, then I went downtown to look for you
So how's about tellin' me where you were at
Porter:
Well me and the boys stopped off for a drink or two
(Dolly: Now ain't you a pretty thang)
Well we got to drinkin' and I guess the time just flew
Dolly:
Well the time must've flown for you alright
'Cause I thought you're gonna stay out all night
And I told myself I ain't a puttin' up with that
Both:
There's always two sides to every story
We can straighten this out, it will take time
Two sides to every story
You tell yours and I'll tell mine
Porter:
You said you went downtown to look for me
Did you have to dress up fancy as could be
Dolly:
You know I never leave the house in no tacky clothes lookin' like a trout
And I's downtown just a-lookin' my best for you
Porter:
Now I'm not accusin' you of doin' wrong
But that's awful late for you to be out and gone
Dolly:
Now look who's talkin' bout 'bein' late, I wasn't about to sit and wait
While you were out there with it ain't no tellin' who
Both:
There's always two sides to every story
We can straighten this out, it will take time
Two sides to every story
You tell yours and I'll tell mine
There's always two sides to every story
We can straighten this out, it will take time
Two sides to every story
You tell yours and I'll tell mine
