Ever since my baby left me you
|
Know this ghost town ain't no
|
Fun no more she stole my heart
|
Away from me and then she
|
Dropped it on the floor my
|
Outside's tough, hellbent
|
Leather overcoat of what was
|
Once a man but inside's a little
|
Broken hearted boy whose
|
Feelings he cannot stand.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I've got these ghost town blues
|
With nothing left to lose
|
The noose swings high up on the
|
Gallows in the wind
|
I've got these ghost town blues
|
|
I feel like an undertaker dressed
|
In black but no one left for dead
|
She left me in a heartbeat
|
And now there's no one left to
|
Sleep in my bed where laughs and
|
Cries and memories were once
|
Now lie and tumbleweeds and dust
|
And an empty graveyard
|
Feeling that began once just as a
|
Childhood lust
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I've got these ghost town blues
|
With nothing left to lose
|
The noose swings high up on the
|
Gallows in the wind
|
I've got these ghost town blues
|
|
My pontiac spit back feelings of
|
Contempt out the exhaust
|
A hundred miles an hour down a
|
Highway. Well I'm beat up and I'm
|
Lost she's gone and I know it,
|
Like an outlaw she ran for the
|
Hills and I'll start a brand new
|
Life with a new girl and these
|
Same old ghost town thrills.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I've got these ghost town blues
|
With nothing left to lose
|
The noose swings high up on the
|
Gallows in the wind
|
I've got these ghost town blues.
