Well I can see she's sick of being with such an ordinary man
Much less a friend
And her eyes they look so tired but she can't imagine sleeping all alone
But she won't come home
So I'm cashing in my change for cigarettes
And that paycheck that I got won't go to rent
If she asks about it please keep it a secret
Until I've gone
Another day, another dollar spent on the father of your
Poor and underprivileged unborn children and
Just twenty bucks would be enough to keep me breathing
I will pay you back when I get paid this weekend
I left a note in the jacket on the wall
I left a twenty dollar bill folded up small
Keys in the mailbox, and I am on a train
I am on train
So I'm cashing in my change for cigarettes
And that paycheck that I got won't go to rent
If she asks about it please keep it a secret
Until I've gone
