If the windows need washing if the grass needs a mowing
If the paint on the shutters is gone
If the kitchen sink is leaking if the backdoor is squeaking
You've left her lonely too long

You've left her lonely too long too long
Too many night you left her all alone
So if you started hurtin' then there's one thing for certain
You've left her lonely too long

[ fiddle ]
If there's no curtains in the window no clothes in the closet
If the clock in the mantle's run down
If the floor you started walking if the neighbors have started talking
You've left her lonely too long

You've left her lonely too long too long...
Oh you've left her lonely too long
