This Used To Be The Home Of Johnnie Mae

Lyrics

I wake up there's no smell of bacon frying
 And it's hard realizing she won't be home no more, no more
 I go to work in rough dried shirts I can't call on my break
 Oh, how it hurts to know she won't be home no more, no more
 This dog of mine seems half alive, he misses her too
 I can see it in his eyes, she never left before, before
 This used to be the home of Johnnie Mae
 This used to be the bed where Johnnie used to lay
 But she's not here no more, no more
 Let me talk to you for a minute now
 I can't explain just how I feel, I can't believe that it's for real
 She's not here no more, no more, this used to be her easy chair
 But the chair looks uneasy without her sitting there
 She never left before, before
 Now and then her friends drop in, it takes my breath away
 When I have to say, she don't live here no more, no more
 This used to be the home of Johnnie Mae
 This used to be the yard where Johnnie used to play
 But she don't live here no more, no more
 She don't live here no more, no more
 Now and then her friends drop in, it takes my breath away
 When I have to say she don't live here no more, no more
 This used to be the home of Johnnie Mae
 This used to be the bed where Johnnie used to lay
 But she's not here no more, no
 This used to be the home of Johnnie Mae
 This used to be the bed where Johnnie used to lay
 But she's not here no more, no more
 This used to be the home of Johnnie Mae
 This used to be the bed where Johnnie used to lay
 But she don't live here no more, no more
