Miss Emily's Picture
I wake up in the morning in a state of fright On the wrong side of the bed all night Clingin' to the broken heart inside my head Open my eyes and I move my hand 'Round her pillow to the night stand and straighten Miss Emily's picture by my bed Go to the office The works piled up Pour three fingers bourban in my coffee cup and cry on my best friend's shoulder down the hall Feels so lonely when I close the door Bite my nails and I walk the floor and straighten Miss Emily's picture on my wall
Look out my window and what do I see? Nothing but pain looking back at me All that my future means to me is tossin yesterday's love out into the wind and straighten Miss Emily's picture now and then
Leave my office and I go downtown to a little bar we all hang around Laugh, drink, shoot pool, and have a ball When the laughter stops and the hurtin' takes hold Reach in my pocket for my billfold and show Miss Emily's picture to 'em all I stagger in the house and I slam the door Scatter my clothes all over the floor Wishin' I could do the same thing in my head Drink a beer and I eat a bite And just before I turn out the light Straighten Miss Emily's picture by my bed
Look out my window and what do I see? Nothing but pain looking back at me All that my future means to me is tossin' yesterday's love out into the wind and staighten Miss Emily's picture now and then
