I left a note on his dresser and my old wedding ring,
With these few goodbye words, how can I sing?


Goodbye old sleepyhead,
I'm packin' you in like I said.
Take care of everything,
I'm leaving my wedding ring.
Don't look for me, I'll get ahead;
Rememember darlin', don't smoke in bed!


Don't look for me, I'll get ahead;
Rememember darlin', don't smoke in bed!
