Last Thing I Needed, First Thing This Morning

Postman delivered

A past due bill notice

The alarm clock rang two hours late

The garbage man left all the trash

On the sidewalk

And the hinges fell off of the gate

This morning at breakfast

I spilled all the coffee

When I opened the door on my knee

Oh, the last thing I needed

The first thing this morning

Was to have you walk out on me

Last night, you came home late

I knew you'd been drinking

By that old mellow look on your face

I thought, "It don't matter

'Cause it's the holiday season"

And you fill such a big empty space

And I laid down beside you

And I wanted your lovin'

'Cause your love makes my life complete

Oh, the last thing I needed

The first thing this morning

Was to have you walk out on me

So excuse me for lookin'

Like my world just ended

And excuse me for lookin'

Like I just lost my best friend

And excuse me for livin'

Being forgiven

Just go on if you wanna be free

The last thing I needed

The first thing this morning

Was to have you walk out on me

Oh, the last thing I needed

The first thing this morning

Was to have you walk out on me
