Now here on the farm the weather gets messy
Layin? around with nothin? to do
When you went away, you took my cow Bessy
I miss her, Darlin?, more than I miss you
You took off your leg, your wig and your eyeglasses
And you should have seen the look on my face
I wanted to kiss, I wanted to hug you
But you were scattered all over the place
Chorus:
Where, oh where are you tonight?
Why did you leave me here all alone?
I searched the world over and I thought I found true love
You met another and, Pffft, you were gone
I know that you love me, here?s my way of knowin?
The clothes hangin? right there on the line
When I see the snow and feel the wind blowin?
Your not just huggin' those long johns tonight
The noises you made at our supper table
Your habits, my dear, were surely absurd
But how many times do I have to tell you
Soup is a dish to be seen and not heard
Chorus
Remember you phoned me a sobbin? and cryin?
The dog bit your maw and drug her around
You said she looked pale and thought she was dyin?
I said ?don?t worry, I?ll buy a new hound?
I had six kids and you had eleven
And we had 8 more and they grew like flowers
I wish you?d come back, without you ain?t heaven
Cause your kids and my kids are beaten up ours
Chorus
I searched the world over and I thought I found true love
You met another and Pffft you were gone
