作词 : Cash I give my woman half my money at the general store I said, 'Now buy a little groceries, and don't spend no more' But she paid ten dollars for a ten cent hat And bought some store bought cat food for that mean eyed cat When I woke up this mornin' and I turned my head There wasn't a cotton pickin' thing on her side of the bed I found a little old note where her head belonged It said, 'Dear John, honey baby, I'm long gone' When I heard a whistle blowin', and the big wheels a-turnin' I was scared as I could be But I put on my overalls and I headed to town Gonna bring her back with me I asked the man down at the station if he'd seen her there I told him all about her pretty eyes and long, blond hair He spit his tobacco, said, 'I'll be dad blamed I believe I did see her leavin' on the east bound train' I bought a round trip ticket on the east bound train I was broke as I could be But when I come back, I gotta buy another ticket Gonna bring her back with me Well, I got off the train somewhere in Arkansas And I worked up the guts to call my mother-in-law She said, 'I'll tell you where she is, if you act right' 'She's workin' 4to 12 at Trucker's World tonight' Well when I walked in she saw me, and she took off her apron And she grabbed her goin' home hat She bought a ticket with her tips, and now we're curled up on the sofa Me and her and that mean eyed cat
