my woman

Lyrics

last night as i lay me down in bed, over and over i heard the last words my woman said, take me with you, i'm so lonesome, but i choose to leave instead, yesterday, she came to me and held my hand, said she was blue and oh so lonesome, and would i try to understand, i didn't know till this morning, how much my woman means to me, this morning when i got home, she was not there, i noticed her clothes were gone, and a little note lay on my shelf, said as you read this, i love you still, but i'll be gone, i don't know where, today i got the blues and i got 'em bad, last night as i lay sleeping, my conscious will not go to rest, yesterday i lost the best woman i ever had, one of these days, can't say where and i don't know when, it may be in time, it may be soon, it may be in a place i've never been, but i'm gonna find that fine woman, and together with her again
