E-ver since my ba-by left me
You know this ghost town
Ain't no fun no more
She stole my heart a-way from me
And then she dropped it on the floor
My out-side's tough, hell-bent lea-ther o-ver-coat
Of what was once a man
But in-side's a lit-tle bro-ken heart-ed boy
Whose feel-ings he can-not stand.
I've got those ghost town blues
With no-thing left to lose
The noose swings high
Up on the gal-lows in the wind
I've got those ghost town blues
Blues
I feel like an undertaker
Dressed in black but no one left for dead
She left me in a heartbeat, and now
There's no one left to sleep in my bed
Where laughs and cries and memories were once
Now lie and tumbleweeds and dust
And an empty graveyard
Feeling that began once just as a
Childhood lust
I've got those ghost town blues
With nothing left to lose
The noose swings high up on the
Gallows in the wind
I've got these ghost town blues
Blues
My pontiac spit back feelings of
Contempt out the exhaust
A hundred miles an hour down a
Highway. Well I'm beat up and I'm
Lost she's gone and I know it,
Like an outlaw she ran for the
Hills and I'll start a brand new
Life with a new girl and these
Same old ghost town thrills.
I've got those ghost town blues
With nothing left to lose
The noose swings high up on the
Gallows in the wind
I've got those ghost town blues
