He always found it hard to take her
|
She wouldn't listen to advice
|
And though he never tried to make her
|
She often thought it would be nice
|
|
Oh, and now she's headin' out to California
|
It's been a long time comin'
|
But she's feelin' like a woman tonight
|
And she left a little letter,
|
Said she's gonna make a stop in Nevada
|
Goodbye. Goodbye.
|
|
She tried for years to be a good wife
|
It never quite got off the ground
|
And all those stories of the good life
|
Convinced her not to hang around
|
|
Oh, and now she's headin' out to California
|
And she doesn't know what's comin'
|
But she sure knows what she's leavin' behind
|
And she left a little letter,
|
Said she's gonna make a stop in Nevada.
|
Goodbye. Goodbye.
|
|
And though she finds it hard to leave him
|
She knows it would be worse to stay
|
He wouldn't understand the reasons
|
That make a woman run away
|
|
Oh, and now she's headin' out to California
|
With some money in her pocket,
|
She's a rocket on the Fourth of July
|
And she left a little letter,
|
Said she's gonna make a stop in Nevada.
|
Goodbye. Goodbye.
