I woke up on the floor again this morning,
Remembered what it was had laid me low.
That hardwood wasn’t meant to be a mattress,
But ever since she left I’ve made it so.
[Chorus:]Here she was; where’s she gone? Restless spirit movin’ on.
Ramblin’ Rose from dusk till dawn. Here she was; where’s she gone?
I curse the brutal honesty of sunrise
That filters through the curtains of my room
Illuminating bobby pin reminders
And pillowcases wearing her perfume.
[Repeat chorus.]
This door is one I’ll never want to open.
I just might let my hammer nail it shut;
She left the closet full of empty hangers,
That do a nasty number on my gut.
[Repeat chorus.]
