I Gave My Woman Half My Money At The General Store
I Said Now Buy A Little Grocers And Don’t Spend No More
Then She Paid Ten Dollars For A Ten Cent Hat
And Got Some Store Brought Cat Food For A Mean Eyed Cat
When I Gave Her Ten More Dollars For A
One Way Ticket She Was Mad As She Could Be
Then I Bet Ten More If She Ever Left She’d Come A Crawling Back To Me
When I Woke Up This Morning And I Turned My Head
There Was A Cotton Picking Thing On Her Side Of The Bed
I Found A Little Ole Note Where Her Head Belonged
It Said Dear John Honey Baby I’m Long Gone
When I Heard The Whistle Blowing And The Big Wheels A Turning
I Was Scared As I Could Be
I Put On My Overalls And I Head For Town I’m Gonna Bring Her Back With Me
I Asked The Man Down The Station If He’d Seen Her There
I Told Him All About Her Pretty Eyes And Long Blonde Hair
He Spit His Tobacco Said I’d Be Dead Blamed
I Believe I Did See Her Leaving’ On An Eastbound Train
I Bought A Round Trip Ticket On An Eastbound Train I Was Broke As I Could Be
But When I Come Back I Got To Buy Another Ticket Gonna Bring Her Back With Me
