Bad News For You Lyrics

Got your telegram this morning

No, I couldn't believe what I read

Says you're coming back home to stay

Truth be told I thought you were dead

Sorry babe I got some bad news for you

Woman you've been gone so damn long

And when you left you didn't look too well

I just supposed you were dearly departed

Kinda hoped you'd to be rotting down in Hell

Sorry baby but I got some bad news for you

Told me you weren't ever coming back

Remember all the hissy fits and tears

Now you've decided all is forgiven

Before you said not in a million years

Hate to relate I've moved on babe

Found me another good-time woman

That's why I'm writing back so soon

There's one major flaw in your plan

Sorry Toots I got some bad news for you

No please don't come down south no more

Hurry go and cash your railroad ticket in

You had your chance, it's all changed

Best go unpack your trusty rolling pin

Sorry Princess I got some bad news for you

When you don't hear from someone no more

Stands to reason you gonna think the worst

You should have hung around and worked things out

Now the way things are ain't gonna be reversed

Did you think I would still be just waiting

For you to come knocking at my back door

Sure for a while I had the dem lonesome blues

But now I'm ain't lonely no more

Sorry babe but now my foots found another shoe

If you want me you better get to the end of the queue

By the way I already inked over that home-made tattoo

Sorry Toots but I got some bad news for you

Hate to break it to you babe

You're yesterday's news

And nobody reads you

End of story
