Looking Out My Window

Looking out my window, looking at the rain

Nothing left but sorrow, nothing left but pain

Why did you go and leave me, sad alone and blue

Looking out my window, woman, trying to find you

Why did you leave me?

Why did you grieve me?

Looking out my window, what do I see

Nobody's crying half as bad as me

I don't think that they feel, so alone and blue

Looking out my window woman, trying to find you

Why did you leave me?

Why did you grieve me?

I'd like to tell you about a little girl

That left me so alone and blue

The trouble is, if I paint the picture too well

You might fall in love with her too

She was about 5'6, a little bag of tricks

My mama told me to watch my back, but I wouldn't listen

Because for you baby I'd scratch out my old love baby

Looking out my window, down the railroad track

Waiting for that little brown eyed girl, she's coming back

I can hear the whistle blowing, down the line

Oh come on back girl, you'll be mine, all mine

Why did you leave me?

Why did you grieve me?

Woah, baby come on home

I'm so alone

I don't care what my mamma says

I want you anyway

I'm down on my knees

Begging you please
