LYRIC FOR SALE

By David North

SHE AIN’T HERE NO MORE

I like a beer before I eat
It makes me light upon my feet
That’s the last time I lie and cheat
Now she ain’t here no more.

(Musical break)

He said, boy that girl is leaving you
I said, what the hell am I supposed to do
He said, ain’t you tried to talk it through?
I said, she ain’t here no more.

I said, daddy that girl has upped and gone
He said, son this time you did her wrong
I said, maybe this time she won’t be long,
He said, she ain’t here no more!

(Musical break)

Another beer and I talk to myself
Her wedding ring’s there upon the shelf
I think this time I’m gonna need some help
Now she ain’t here no more.

The last time that I saw her ass
She jumped in the car and she hit the gas
I prayed so hard like I was saying Mass
Now she ain’t here no more.

(Musical break)

(Slow)
I close my eyes and I start to dance
I think I’m mister fancypants
I turn around to take her hand
But she ain’t here no more.


(Normal)
I like a beer before I eat
It makes me light upon my feet
That’s the last time I lie and cheat
Now she ain’t here no more
No, she ain’t here no more
No, she ain’t here no more
No, she ain’t here….
NO MORE!
