- Oh that's hilarious.

♪ What a rotten day this turned out to be.

♪ I still can't believe she'd leave so easily.

♪ She just got all her things threw em' into a pile.

♪ Then she loaded her car and said after a while.

♪ She done this before but this time she didn't cry.

♪ That's why I'm sitting on the front steps,

♪ Staring down the road,

♪ Wonderin' if she'll come back this time.

♪ I don't know.

♪ After she packed, when she looked back,

♪ There were no tears in her eyes.

♪ And that's got me worried,

♪ Thinking maybe my baby's gotten good at goodbye.

♪ All the times before she'd break down and cry.

♪ She'd make her threats,

♪ But her heart wasn't set on goodbye.

♪ She just wanted me to hear what she had to say.

♪ Now I'm lost for words since she went away.

♪ She may not return for this time she didn't cry.

♪ That's why I'm sitting on the front steps,

♪ Staring down the road, wonderin' if she'll come back.

♪ This time I don't know.

♪ After she packed, when she looked back,

♪ There were no tears in her eyes.

♪ And that's got me worried thinking

♪ Maybe my baby's gotten good at goodbye.

♪ That's why I'm sitting on the front steps,

♪ Staring down the road, wonderin' if she'll come back

♪ This time I don't know.

♪ After she packed, when she looked back,

♪ There were no tears in her eyes.

♪ And that's got me worried thinking

♪ Maybe my baby's gotten good at goodbye.
