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 gave 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 blamedI 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 and gotta buy another ticket Gonna bring her back with me Well, I got off the train somewhere in ArkansasAnd 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' four to twelve 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
