I Miss Her So

I don't care about tomorrow And can't remember yesterday I'm just drownin' here in sorrow Because I lost my love today She told me once she was goin' I didn't think that she would go I stayed where whiskey was flowin' How could I know I'd miss her so I couldn't pass up neon signs And juke boxes with sawdust floors Fiddles play while a guitar whines - The little "whoof" of batwing doors Yeah, I'm drownin' here in sorrow I had my head up in the fog Shed more tears than I can borrow She took my pickup and my dog Yeah, I'm drownin' here in sorrow I had my head up in the fog Shed more tears than I can borrow She took my pickup and my dog 7/16/2017

This is a great country tune, I can hear the melody in my head, my last few songs have a definite country feel, great job Larry yeehaw!

Thanks, John! I've been reading your recent poems with the "lyric" designation and I'm really impressed. You've got the touch, my friend!..Do you write the music for them also? Larry
