She works day and night in a dingy cafe Feedin' locals and pa**ers by She never complains of a heartache and pain But sometimes she breaks down to cry And her honky tonk husband spends most of his time Drinking whiskey and watching TV And now rumor has it he's foolin' around But the rumor she she does not believe And the sadness of that all is I could fall
Like rain from the sky for you Sadness of that all is I could fall Like rain from the sky for you Each night at nine around closin' time He drops by to say hello We sit down and talk and go for walk It gets just as far as it goes And the sadness of it all... And the sadness of it all...
