The postman deliveredA 'past due' bill noticeThe alarm clock rang two hours lateThe garbage man left all the trashO n the sidewalkAnd the hinges fell off of the gateAnd this morning at breakfastI spilled all the coffeeAnd I opened the doo r on my kneeBut the last thing I neededThe first thing this morningWas to have you walk out on meLast night you came home lateAnd I knew you'd been drinkingBy that old mellow look on your faceI thought, 'It don't matter'Cause it's the holiday se ason'And you fill such a big empty spaceBut then I laid down beside youAnd I wanted your lovin'Because your love makes my life completeBut the last thing I neededThe first thing this morningWas to have you walk out on meSo excuse me for lookin' Like my world just endedAnd excuse me for lookin'Like I just lost my best friendAnd excuse me for livin'And being forgivin gSo just go on if you want to be freeBut the last thing I neededThe first thing this morningWas to have you walk out on me
