She took the house, she took the cat
She took the car, she took my hat
She took the book I had not read
She kicked me out of my own bed
She cleaned me out and took my place
But worst of all I lost my face
Now on her wall hangs my guitar
I never thought she'd go that far
The little lady looked like she wouldn't bite
But underneath that make-up was a parasite
She took my hopes, she took my dreams
She really took it all it seems
Our vows are gone without a trace
She closed the door right in my face
It's sometimes smart to watch your back
Don't be misled by one-eyed Jack
If I'd not listened to his advice
I'd seen the lady was in disguise
