Her Man Leaves Town

I wondered about you
Drinking green stuff in a bar
Very far away
Our friend said it would help you sleep
There is a silence
About the room
An old pair of shoes
You gave me to keep
You see your eye grow dim
And your heart grow cold
And the name of the day
'Bout as much as you know
And you can’t stay away
So you feel the blow
When Daddy say he got to go
I wondered about you
In another part of the world
Strange day
That we do not meet
There is a loss
Felt in the house
Where two people cried
Where only one weeps
You see your eye grow dim
And your heart grow cold
And the name of the day
'Bout as much as you know
And you can’t stay away
So you feel the blow
When Daddy say he got to go
I wondered about you
Drinking green stuff in a bar
Bringing in the night
On your own again
Travelling light
There’s a new space
About the place
And old pair of shoes
Ain’t gonna put it right
