You took everything that I owned and gave me nothing back in return
Stayed right by my side until my bank account ran dry
My landlord gave me notice. He hadn't seen a dime in eight weeks
My Cadillac, it was impounded, now I'm driving round on my own two feet
I'm too broke to pay my dues
I gave you my last paycheck, you paid me back with blues.
When I think about you I cry, but it's not your tears in my eyes
Every word you said was untrue
I lost everything when I found you
You can't squeeze blood from a stone, but that don't mean that you never tried
You don't know what's in front of your face when you're always looking up to the sky
My mother always tried to warn me 'bout wicked little girls like you
You're always trying to step on somebody like you got something to prove
I'm too broke to pay my dues
I gave you my last paycheck, you paid me back with blues.
When I think about you I cry, but it's not your tears in my eyes
Every word you said was untrue
I lost everything when I found you
You know I kinda miss my money
I want back my dimes, pennies,
I kinda miss my nickels too
You know, you can keep my money
Just as long as you stay gone.
