Well, I'm gonna have to get a new mailbox

'Cuz all she left me was a hole

And I'm gonna hafta get a new washin' machine

As soon as I get some new clothes

Well, I could close my eyes and run through this house

And never once stub my big toe

It was a man who'd never been left who said

You can't take it with you when you go



Hell, she took everything but the kitchen sink

If I had me a glass Lord, I'd pour me a drink

It's a lesson hard learned but it just goes to show

You can take it with you when you go



Well, I'm sittin' here on this hard floor

Where a big, soft couch used to be

And I'm starin' at a bug on the wall

Where there used to be a TV

Well, I'd kill that sucker in a heartbeat

If I could find me anything to throw

I was so nave to have ever believed

You can't take it with you when you go



Well, she took everything but the kitchen sink

If I had me a glass Lord, I'd pour me a drink

It's a lesson hard learned but it just goes to show

You can take it with you when you go



Well, she took everything but the kitchen sink

If I had me a glass Lord, I'd pour me a drink

It's a lesson hard learned but it just goes to show

You can take it with you when you go

I oughta call somebody but I ain't got a phone

Just goes to show you can take it with you when you go
