She walked in the room, clicked off the t.v. Kicked her feet up on the chair Said we’re headed in different directions One of us gotta get out of here I said hey baby let me make it easy Or maybe baby we could work things out She lit up a cig, said my bags are packed In 2 seconds flat, like jumpin jack flash She’s gone My baby ain’t coming back no My baby ain’t coming back My baby ain’t coming back Got a one way ticket on a one way track My baby she’s a hot tamale My baby‘s burning up the road My baby done flipped me the bird No matter what you heard she ain’t coming back no Nothing left but a cloud of dust and Tire tracks through the whole front yard She might think i’m coming back to chase her But she ain’t worth the miles i’d put on my car Might be out in oklahoma, maybe down in arkansas Maybe up in ohio, what she don’t know It don’t hurt at all, y’all My baby ain’t coming back no My baby ain’t coming back My baby ain’t coming back Got a one way ticket on a one way track My baby she’s a hot tamale My baby‘s burning up the road My baby done flipped me the bird No matter what you heard she ain’t coming back no I heard a hemi coming up the driveway Thinking maybe she’s back tonight It’s just the boys headed for the poolhall Sometimes things just work out right My baby ain’t coming back no My baby ain’t coming back My baby ain’t coming back Got a one way ticket on a one way track My baby she’s a hot tamale My baby‘s burning up the road My baby done flipped me the bird No matter what you heard she ain’t coming back no
