Intro: Verse one 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 floor My outsides are tough Hellbent leather overcoat of what once was a man But inside's a little broken hearted boy Whose feelings he cannot stand I'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 blues Mmm-hmmmm yeah Verse two I 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 bed Where laughs and cries and memories were once Now lie and tumbleweeds and dust And an empty graveyard feeling that began once Just as a childhood lust I'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 blues Mmm-hmmmm yeah instrumental Verse three My 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 lost She'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 thrills I'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 blues I'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
