I've got a mind to give up living

And go shopping instead

I've got a mind to give up living

And go shopping instead

Pick me up a tombstone

And be pronounced dead

Well, I read your letter this morning

That was on your place in bed

Oh, when I read your letter this morning

That was on your place in bed

That's when I decided that I'd be better off dead

Oh, yeah

When I read your letter this morning

That was on your place in bed

Yes, when I read your letter this morning

That was on your place in bed

That's when I decided that I'd be better off dead

It read, "There is no use looking or ever hoping

Or ever hoping to get me back"

"Oh, no use looking, baby

Or ever hoping to get me back

Because it's all over now

And, baby, you can bet on that"

Oh, yeah
