Ghost Town Blues Lyrics

Ever since my baby left me
You know this ghost town ain't no fun no more
She stole my heart away from me
And then she dropped it on the floorMy outside's tough, hellbent
Leather overcoat of what was a man
But inside's a little broken hearted boy
Whose feelings he cannot standI've got those ghost town blues
With nothing left to lose
The noose swings high up on the gallows in the wind
I've got those ghost town bluesI feel like an undertaker
Dressed in black but no one left for dead
She left me in a heartbeat
And now there's no one left to sleep in my bedWhere laughs and cries and memories
Were once now, lie tumbleweeds and dust
And an empty graveyard feeling that began once
Just as a childhood lustI've got those ghost town blues
With nothing left to lose
The noose swings high up on the gallows in the wind

I've got those ghost town bluesMy Pontiac spits back feelings of contempt
Out the exhaust
A hundred miles an hour down a highway
Well I'm beat up and I'm lostShe's gone and I know it
Like an outlaw she ran for the hills
And I'll start a brand new life
With a new girl and those same old ghost town thrillsI've got those ghost town blues
With nothing left to lose
The noose swings high up on the gallows in the wind
I've got those ghost town bluesI've got those ghost town blues
I've got those ghost town blues
I've got those ghost town blues
I've got those ghost town blues
