I walked down myrtle avenue to meet my sister for some company.
And she said she heard my other half had escaped from penitentiary.
Well i got home about nine a.m. and somebody had changed the locks.
I walked outside and spent three months sleeping in a buick that was up on blocks.
Maybe there's nothing left to do,
I've tried to kill myself, i've tried to sing about you,
They say the only way to win a mama's girl is with praise... well maybe not today
Cause it's another summer not having you here to hold me
It's another sunset not knowing where you're at
And i know better baby than to say nobody told me,
So if you're lying down next to another, then girl i tip my hat.
I walked down to my sister's house and told her my true love was gone.
She told me she was going to walk up in the hills and get a mountain girl all her own.
Well she left town that afternoon and put her house keys on the shelf.
Nobody knows but i followed her trail and pushed her off a cliff myself.
Maybe there's nothing left to say,
It could've been a little much to treat family that way
They say the only way to win a mama's girl is with style... well i can try it for a while
Cause its another summer not having you here to hold me.
It's a another sunset not knowing where you're at and i know better baby
Than to say nobody told me, so if you're lying down next to another,
Then girl i tip my hat.
