The Only Thing She Left Me Was the Blues

I woke up this mornin to an empty house
 And empty's just what I mean
 My baby must've left in the middle of the night
 She really stripped the place clean
 Well I don't know how I slept through it all
 It must've been one hell of a snooze
 The only thing she left me was the blues
 She took my favorite chair, she left the cupboards bear
 She even took our old dog Gus
 The only thing that lingered in the air
 Was a sad memory of us
 She took my VCR, She even took my guitar
 As she walked on out the door
 She took the kitchen table but she still was able
 To leave the bills on the floor
 She must've had strong arms to tote it all out
 She must've had soft footsteps cause I didn't wake up and find out
 She took my baseball bat, she took my cowboy hat
 My boots and all of my shoes
 The only thing she left me was the blues
 Now I'm lyin here naked on my living room floor
 Cause she run off with all of my clothes
 I'd like to listen to a record on my old turntable
 She run off with all of those
 The sound of silence as I sit here alone
 Lets me know it's gonna be a long day
 What a stroke of bad luck she took my pick-up truck
 To haul it all away
 Now I wish I knew just where she went
 But she didn't leave a number to call
 I wish I knew what time it was
 She took the clock off of the wall
 But one thing's clear as I'm sittin here
 Searchin for all of the clues
 The only thing she left me was the blues
 She must've had strong arms to tote it all out
 She must've had soft footsteps cause I didn't wake up and find out
 I'd like to call someone but she took the phone
 Now ain't nobody heard the news
 The only thing she left me was the blues
