Correct or fail. Choice of one or the other. But tell me... what’s the difference between a duck? [emoji2]

Here's a Quarter
Travis Tritt
You say you were wrong to ever leave me alone
Now you're sorry, you're lonesome and scared
And you say you'd be happy if I you could just come back home
Well, here's a quarter, call someone who cares
Call someone who'll listen, or might give a damn
Maybe one of your sorted affairs
But don't you come 'round here handin' me none of your lies
Here's a quarter, call someone who cares
Girl, I thought what we had could never turn bad
So your leavin' caught me unaware
But the fact is you've run...girl, that can't be undone
So here's…
I always wondered if the writer meant to say "sordid" affairs in this Travis Tritt song. Sorted? As in organized or arranged?

And how do you know that as originally written and sung that ‘sordid’ was not used?
