Trash Truck TragedyIn December when the snow starts to fall Is a good time to clean both heart and house So I gathered up her goodbye letters And I resolved to throw them all out I put those letters in a big trash bag With some photographs and a band of gold If I'm ever going to get over her It's in with the new and out with the old Then I took all my burdens to the curb In the dark of night so no one could see That I've given up on her coming back I let the darkness hide my misery But this morning the trash men let me down When they let that trash bag fall off their truck Now my memories scatter in the wind While I stand here wrapped up in my bad luck Chorus: Her goodbye letters blow up and down the street Caught in trees and the bottom of my neighbors' feet All those cold and hard words she wrote Lying like icicles on the side of the road A tale of woe for all to read All thanks to a trash truck tragedy Boys you better not spend those twenties yet And I won't be making cookies this year My heart is ripped open like that trash bag All that litter has trashed all my good cheer I'll still separate my recyclables And put out my trash on every trash day But next time I get my heart broken I will not throw the evidence away Bridge: When it warms up a little I'll put on my work gloves And pick up the newspapers, cans and things I once loved I'll avoid all the sympathetic glances and stares Yeah I'll look right through them like they're not even there Chorus: Her goodbye letters blow up and down the street Caught in trees and the bottom of my neighbors' feet All those cold and hard words she wrote Lying like icicles on the side of the road A tale of woe for all to read All thanks to a trash truck tragedy Copyright Kent Newsome and Ronnie Jeffrey All Rights Reserved |
