Can't Take It With You

Never realized how much she brought to the table

’Til I went to sit my cup of coffee where the table used to be

No couch, no bed, no heirloom antique cradle

No more hope for one day startin’ that family

Bet she’s gainin’ fast on Memphis

With a trailer load in tow

Who says you can’t take it with you when you go

'Cause she got away with everything that I had goin’

And she got away 'fore I could make it all alright

And I got a way with leavin’ what needs said unspoken

Hell, I even blew the chance I had to say goodbye

Yeah, she took her heart and took off down that road

And they say you can’t take it with you when you go

Good news is ain’t much here left for packin’

Bad news is she left behind a million memories

All the echoes of her cryin’, lovin’ and laughin’

Left me with nothin’ left to do but leave

That old house is in the rearview, ridin’ shotgun is her ghost

Who says you can’t take it with you when you go

'Cause she got away with everything that I had goin’

And she got away 'fore I could make it all alright

And I got a way with leavin’ what needs said unspoken

Hell, I even blew the chance I had to say goodbye

She just took her heart and took off down that road

And they say you can’t take it with you when you go

Closin’ in on Dallas now

Is the best love I’ve ever known

And they say you can’t take it with you when you go
