Last year when things were good, I went and bought myself a grave You said that was a morbid thing to do But when it's done and said, I’m gonna lie down next to dad And take comfort he was spared my time with you You took everything when you left Took the sheets from off of the bed And I know if I'd been home, you'dve took the hat right off my head Everything I own I can’t use till I'm dead Your letter came today when I was on my second ale Looks like you're in an awful desperate place And though it's not for me to say that you should go to hеll That sure would put a smile upon my face You took еverything when you left Cleaned out every wooden nickel, every cent And I know if I'd been home, you'dve took the hat right off my head Everything I own I can't use till I'm dead
