From the Album: Stompin' Ground (SBS Records) Samsonite Michelle Malone (STRANGE BIRD SONGS/ASCAP) D Your suitcase is sitting on my porch Waiting there for you since 1994 Every since you moved in with me and my mama and daddy You made me such a happy girl When you told me that you loved me on the tilt a whirl But every since our wedding day you been threatening to leave me Im working at the diner to pay all of the bills I try to keep you in cologne and all your vitamin pills But nothings ever good enough Say goodbye, Samsonite You keep telling me youre fed up, but then you want to make up Samsonite, Dont make me cry anymore Im getting kinda rusted, cause my heart has gotten busted And I know that you got leaving on your mind all the time Mama said that I should try to be A little more patient , honey, wait and see Daddy said that I shouldnt let you treat me like an open swinging door screen Honey, I love you like I did back then But it hurts me so, and I cant pretend it dont Matter to me anymore so I guess we better hire an attorney I bought you a ticket on the next gray hound Headed down to Opelika, and Im city bound Cause you were never good enough Say goodbye, Samsonite You keep on telling me youre leaving, babe, you best believe it Samsonite, Dont make me cry anymore Im feeling kinda relieved, cause I know youre gonna leave me alone Now that I got leaving on my mind all the time, all the time Well, go ahead and pack it up!
