NO MONEY ON THE TABLE

No money on the table

just my broken heart

Should have seen it coming 

right from the start

You say that you love me

I'll have to disagree

No money on the table 

just a broken heart for me

 

You knock on my door

I let you in

you leave in the morning

without any warning

No sweet good bye

just an empty bed

Leaving me to cry 

till my eyes are fiery red

 

No money on the table

just my broken heart

Should have seen it coming 

right from the start

You say that you love me

I'll have to disagree

No money on the table

just a broken heart for me

 

Next time you knock

I won't be here

Not cuz I don't 

love you dear

Just can't take the pain

you hurt me so

Leaving me to feel

like I really need to go

 

No money on the table

just my broken heart

Should have seen it coming

right from the start

As much as I love you

It's time for us to part

With no money on the table

just my broken heart.

Thanks...that is just what I was going for. Wish I could come up with a tune. I would love to sing country western. I can't play the guitar either. Sort of a problem.

I like this Lynn - it has the feel of a Country & Western ballad with all the requisite ingredients. I'm not a great fan of the genre (musically) but find the lyricism and story telling fascinating. Thanks for posting. Col.
