[1st verse:]
|
My honey, do you remember 'twas a December day
|
I said that you would repent the day that you went away
|
You turned as red as a ruby, much too good to be true
|
You thought I'd sit around lonely thinking of only you
|
Little you knew that
|
|
[Refrain:]
|
When you walked out someone else walked right in
|
Someone with good news
|
Stepped right in your shoes
|
|
Somebody else took your place on my knee
|
Another sweetie in clover fussin' all over me
|
|
I saw that you grew so cold, love
|
So what could I do?
|
Off with the old love
|
And on with the new
|
|
When you walked out
|
Honey I just had to grin
|
You left the door wide open and
|
Somebody else walked in
|
|
[2nd verse:]
|
A happy couple were we two while you were sweet to me
|
But now I'm sending bad news to my little used to be
|
You thought the minute you'd shake me that it would make me blue
|
And I would sit around lonely thinking of only you
|
Little you knew that
|
|
