I came home the other night I've been out on a town I searched talk through the house she was not around I finally found her note it read this is goodbye to you And that's the last town I painted and I painted it blue.
Now that I have lost her I don't want to live I done all the takin' I didn't want to give Time has come it's plain to see the devil must pay his dues And that's the last town I painted and I painted it blue.
--- Instrumental ---
I still go to the tavern that I went to before I search for the fun I had it's not there anymore If I could have her back again I know I would be true 'Cause the last town I painted, I painted it blue.
Now blue is not my favorite color cause it makes me sad Why I asked for all these blues when I'm usin' too much red I've got a lotta troubles no one to tell it to 'Cause the last town I painted, I painted it blue...
